Database:From MEDLINE®/PubMed®, a database of the U.S. National Library of Medicine.
Summary:
1. Resting metabolic rates at 25 degrees C were determined for juvenile midland painted turtles that had recently been fed or fasted for 1, 2, 4, 6, 10, 14 or 19 days. 2. Recently fed turtles had an oxygen consumption rate of 211 microliter O2/g/hr. This decreased by 32% on the first day of the fast and by 69% by the 19th day. 3. Mass of the turtles (4.91-14.30 g) did not affect the rate of oxygen consumption (VO2).
