Animals are raised in confinement and fed defined feeds that are formulated to increase growth rates and feed-conversion efficiencies.
This hermaphroditic species exhibits well defined seasonality in feeding and reproduction and its development and growth have been characterized.
The rat vibrissal pathway is a widely studied model of sensory information transduction due to its well defined discrete feed-forward anatomy.
A standardized feeding protocol was applied that defined feeding increments, handling of feeding difficulties, and complementary parenteral nutrition.
As a consequence, it has been proposed that some species will mate locally at feeding sites when these are well defined and females feed predictably.
However, the neural integration processes underlying the regulation of feeding are not well defined.
Both extremes of feeding have well defined adverse effects and should be avoided [ 22].
The only places where they are seen regularly and in relatively high densities are two small, well-defined feeding areas on the north-eastern Sakhalin Shelf, Russia.
The feeding frequency of the leafminer larvae had a well defined rhythm under LD or LL, and the rhythm largely disappeared in the DD condition, indicating that the feeding rhythm of leafminer larvae is entrained by light.
This lack of a well defined immature plumage (Wetmore 1965), along with its feeding behavior (Haverschmidt 1958), separates the Capped Heron from the night-herons.
Albeit quite complex, with both feed-forward and feed-back regulatory loops, this network is sufficiently well defined to allow predictive modeling of its behavior both in a steady state and kinetic representations (Kuttykrishnan et al. 2010).
