Snake Adaptation to High Elevation Hypoxia by azael is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This research article investigates how embryonic and juvenile viperine snakes (Natrix maura) adapt to high elevation hypoxia through changes in cardiovascular physiology and metabolism. The study found that embryos incubated in low oxygen conditions exhibited altered developmental trajectories but maintained similar hatching success and body size compared to those in normoxic conditions. Additionally, juveniles showed reduced carbon dioxide production relative to oxygen consumption, indicating a shift in en
