Abstract:

Calls for reform in science education have promoted active learning as a means to improve student engagement (SENG). SENG is generally acknowledged to have a positive effect on student learning, satisfaction, and retention. A validated 14-question survey was used to assess SENG in a variety of upper- and lower-level physiology courses, including 100-level Anatomy and Physiology 1, 300-level Animal Physiology, 400-level Advanced Physiology, and 500-level Medical Physiology courses. The results indicated that SENG did not vary consistently by course level, format, or curriculum. The highest leve

Abstract:

Animal welfare is a subject of increasing scientific and ethical concern in today’s society, crucial for the well-being of animals used in research and the integrity of scientific data. Equipping researchers in the life science disciplines with a science-based knowledge of animal welfare, behaviour, physiology, and health is, therefore, essential. Nevertheless, previous studies evaluating animal welfare education focused on veterinary, laboratory, or farm animal science. Consequently, the aim of this study was, for the very first time, to map the prevalence of animal welfare courses in the uni

Experiments designed for students in reproductive physiology are rare. Here, we describe a simple experiment concerning a physiological aspect of the reproductive system. Milk samples are obtained from cows in estrus, in midcycle, 21 days after insemination, and in gestation. With these samples, the gestation or estrous stage is determined according to the progesterone level in milk that is measured using enzyme immunoassay. This experiment can therefore be used to demonstrate assay techniques and to illustrate the variations in progesterone concentrations during an estrous cycle and gestation

The purpose of this study is to verify the opinion of students in relation to a learning methodology, where emphasis is not placed on the accumulation or memorizationi of specific knowledge, but in the use of dedution to solve problems related to a particular subject. This study was carried out with undergraduate students of the course "Comparative Animal Physiology" (classes of 10 to 15 students each), from the Federal University of Santa Maria, Southern Brazil. During each class the students discussed the answers to a given question, provided by the teacher, with the aid of available referen

Abstract:

Student enrollments in online college courses have grown steadily over the past decade, and college administrators expect this trend to continue or accelerate. Despite the growing popularity of online education, one major critique in the sciences is that students are not trained in the hands-on skills they may need for the workforce, graduate school, or professional school. For example, the Association of American Medical Colleges has recommended that medical schools evaluate applicants on their motor skills and observation skills, yet many online biology programs do not offer opportunities fo

Abstract:

The animal welfare principles are forcing undergraduate teaching to avoid the use of animals. Therefore, many hands-on lab sessions using laboratory animals are progressively replaced by computer simulations. These versatile software simulations permit the observation of the behavior of biological systems under a great variety of experimental conditions. While this versatility is important, computer simulations often work even when a student makes wrong assumptions, a situation that poses its own pedagogical problem. Hands-on learning provides pupils with the opportunity to safely make mistake

Abstract:

Allergic inflammation is known to cause airway hyperresponsiveness in mice. However, it is not known whether inflammation affects the stiffness of the airway wall, which would alter the load against which the circumscribing smooth muscle shortens when activated. Accordingly, we measured the time course of airway resistance immediately following intravenous methacholine injection in acutely and chronically allergically inflamed mice. We estimated the effective stiffness of the airway wall in these animals by fitting to the airway resistance profiles a computational model of a dynamically narrow

In response to this industry expectation, SDSU Extension offered multiple formats for cattle handling trainings.

AbstractAt present, animal experimentation remains central to our understanding of human disease-related processes and of the biological effects of many substances. Traditional experiments have relied heavily on invasive techniques to monitor changes in blood biochemistry, tissue structure or function, or to phenotype or genotype genetically modified animals. In some cases, a proportion or all of the animals used during the course of a study may be sacrificed for histopathological assessment. In most cases, this is to track the progression or regression of a disease over time, or to determine

To evaluate the contribution of α4* and non-α4 nAChRs in the development of tolerance to hypothermia and locomotor suppression, α4 knockout (KO), hypersensitive Leu9′Ala α4 knock-in, and wild-type (WT) mice received daily nicotine injections, and their behaviors were compared. Repeated selective activation of α4* nAChRs in Leu9′Ala mice produced profound tolerance

Animals were exposed to 100% O2 for 64 h and then returned to room air for varying periods of time up to 200 h. By the end of the exposure period, the alveolar permeability to solute increased significantly, and biochemical analyses of bronchoalveolar lavages showed a 30% decline in phospholipid content and a threefold increase in protein levels. However, other parameters such as wet-to-dry lung weight ratios, blood gas values, and pressure-volume mechanics were not significantly

Abstract:

The coevolution of host-pathogen interactions underlies many human physiological traits associated with protection from or susceptibility to infections. Among the mechanisms that animals utilize to control infections are the regulated cell death pathways of pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis. Over the course of evolution these pathways have become intricate and complex, coevolving with microbes that infect animal hosts. Microbes, in turn, have evolved strategies to interfere with the pathways of regulated cell death to avoid eradication by the host. Here, we present an overview of the mech

ABSTRACTFlight—defined as the ability to produce useful aerodynamic forces by flapping wings—is one of the most demanding adaptations in vertebrates. The mechanical problems of flight ensure considerable external morphological homogeneity and behavioural similarity in extant fliers. Observations of the vortex wakes and wingbeat geometry of modern birds and bats confirm that the two groups are mechanically very similar, despite differences in phylogeny, anatomy and physiology. With this background it is possible to attack two problems: the evolution of flight in vertebrates, and the flight perf

Students had difficulty distinguishing osmolarity from tonicity and determining tonicity based on the solution’s composition. The most useful activities were questions requiring simultaneous consideration of both osmolarity and tonicity. Problems that require calculating
