| Title |
Coupled evolution of breathing and locomotion as a game of leapfrog |
| Date |
2006 |
| Description |
Because the increase in metabolic rate related to locomotor activity places demands on the cardiorespiratory apparatus, it is not surprising that the evolution of breathing and of locomotion are coupled. As the respiratory faculty becomes more refined, increasingly aerobic life strategies can be explored, and this activity is in turn expedited by a higher-performance respiratory apparatus. |
