Contribution of spontaneous activity to daily energy expenditure of adult obese and lean Zucker rats.

abstract：:Four experiments were conducted to determine the effect of parachlorophenylalanine (PCPA) on the male mating behavior of a line of chickens genetically selected for low mating frequency and to determine the effect on brain concentrations of 5-hydroxytryptamine, dopamine (DA) and norepinephrine (NE). Mating behavior wa...
