(n.) The act of acclimatizing; the process of inuring to a new climate, or the state of being so inured.
Example Sentences:
(1) Each experiment was designed as a 2 x 2 x 3 factorial with normal birds and acclimatization birds fitted with harnesses or housed over collection trays and given one of three dietary treatments.
(2) The effects of age and acclimatization in the healthy and unhealthy elderly and the very young are reviewed briefly as is also the possibility that air conditioning may have an adverse effect on acclimatization.
(3) Steady-state responses obtained after the 3rd h of immersion in never-immersed (NI) penguins were compared with those of penguins acclimatized to seawater temperature (A).
(4) Fish acclimatized to 2 degrees C (cold-adapted enzyme) and 17 degrees C (warm-adapted enzyme) show different relative distributions of the three NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase isoenzymes; this has been demonstrated with electrophoresis and electrofocusing techniques.
(5) Lugworms, Arenicola marina (L.), acclimatized at 16-17 degrees C, were acclimated at temperatures between 5.3 and 25.7 degrees C for 96 h. Whereas in vitro Arenicola blood behaves like a Rosenthal system, in vivo prebranchial blood does not: the higher the acclimation temperature, the lower the pHv and [HCO3]V, PVCO2, remaining practically constant.
(6) The results were reversed following heat acclimatization; i.e.
(7) Acclimatization to high altitude increased total sleep time, stage 3 duration and percentage of paradoxical sleep.
(8) Group A attended the sleep laboratory for three nights: acclimatization, a baseline night, and one night of physostigmine infusion.
(9) We conclude that in adult goats, time-dependent changes in ventilatory response to CO2 during acclimatization to prolonged hypoxia are not primarily attributable to alterations in endogenous opioid peptide activity.
(10) The glutathione S-transferase activity in hepatopancreas of the American red crayfish Procambarus clarkii after 15 days' acclimatization in tap water aquaria was measured in specimens collected monthly for a whole year, and shows seasonal variation.
(11) The effect of heat acclimatization on aerobic exercise tolerance in the heat and on subsequent sprint exercise performance was investigated.
(12) This was noted both in acclimatized and in unacclimatized rats.
(13) Both groups displayed changes typical of heat acclimatization over the 7-day period, with significant decreases in final rectal temperature (Tr) and heart rate (HR) being evident, but no change in sweat loss.
(14) Five highly trained distance runners (DR) were observed during controlled 90-min thermoregulation trials in spring (T1) and late summer (T2) to document the nature of heat acclimatization in the northeastern United States.
(15) Heat acclimatization might reduce the adverse effect of heat stress on potassium and phosphate absorption.
(16) We have investigated the vasoreactivity of isolated pulmonary resistance vessels of rats after acclimatization to chronic hypoxia in a normobaric, hypoxic chamber.
(17) PO rats and ADPO female Wistar rats were cold acclimatized to 5 degrees C for 2 operated and then treated exactly like the lesioned rats.
(18) Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and phenylethanolamine-N-methyltransferase (PNMT) activities were assayed in adrenal glands of the following groups of the Alaskan red-backed vole (Clethrionomys rutilus dawsoni): 1) laboratory reared at 20 degrees C and 2) exposed to 5 degrees C for 1, 3, 7, and 28 days; 3) wild, summer acclimatized; 4) wild, fall acclimatized; and 5) wild, winter acclimatized.
(19) Acclimatized rats showed an increased activity of mitochondrial glutamate dehydrogenase without changes in glycolytic enzyme activity in skeletal muscle, heart and liver.
(20) Glucose also lowered the steady potential, whatever the previous acclimatization temperature, when the external sodium concentration was low.4.
Acclimatize
Definition:
(v. t.) To inure or habituate to a climate different from that which is natural; to adapt to the peculiarities of a foreign or strange climate; said of man, the inferior animals, or plants.
