ANIMAL ENERGETICS
SECTION I: OVERVIEW CHAPTER ONE BASIC CONCEPTS: BUDGETS, ALLOMETRY, TEMPERATURE, AND THE IMPRINT OF HISTORY THE INPUT/OUTPUT BUDGET: A KEY CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK THE IMPORTANCE OF SIZE: SCALING OF PHYSIOLOGICAL AND ECOLOGICAL TRAITS THE IMPORTANCE OF TEMPERATURE USING HISTORICAL DATA IN COMPARATIVE STUDIES SECTION II: CHEMICAL ECOLOGY OF FOOD CHAPTER TWO THE CHEMISTRY AND BIOLOGY OF FOOD GETTING STARTED; FIRST CATCH (STORE AND PREPARE) THE HARE PROXIMATE NUTRIENT ANALYSIS DIETARY FIBER CARBOHYDRATES AMINO ACIDS AND PROTEINS LIPIDS VITAMINS MINERALS SECONDARY METABOLITES WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT SECTION III: DIGESTIVE ECOLOGY CHAPTER THREE FOOD INTAKE AND UTILIZATION EFFICIENCY OVERVIEW OF SECTION III: WHY STUDY DIGESTION? DIGESTIVE EF?CIENCY IS INVERSELY RELATED TO “FIBER” CONTENT BOTH DIGESTION RATE AND DIGESTIVE EF?CIENCY ARE KEY NUTRITIONAL VARIABLES DAILY FOOD INTAKE: ENERGY MAXIMIZATION OR REGULATION? CHAPTER FOUR SIMPLE GUTS: THE ECOLOGICAL BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY OF CATALYTIC DIGESTION LOTS OF GUTS, BUT ONLY A FEW BASIC TYPES THE GUT AS A BOTTLENECK TO ENERGY FLOW THE GUT IN ENERGY INTAKE MAXIMIZERS INTERMITTENT FEEDERS THE GUT IN DIET SWITCHERS THE EVOLUTIONARY MATCH BETWEEN DIGESTION, DIETS, AND ANIMAL ENERGETICS SUMMARY: THE INTERPLAY BETWEEN DIGESTIVE PHYSIOLOGY AND ECOLOGY CHAPTER FIVE PHOTOSYNTHETIC ANIMALS AND GAS-POWERED MUSSELS: THE PHYSIOLOGICAL ECOLOGY OF NUTRITIONAL SYMBIOSES A SYMBIOTIC WORLD A DIVERSITY OF NUTRITIONAL SYMBIOSES HOT VENTS AND COLD SEEPS: CHEMOLITHOTROPHS OF THE DEEP SEA THE IMPORTANCE OF NITROGEN IN NUTRITIONAL SYMBIOSES CHAPTER SIX DIGESTIVE SYMBIOSES: HOW INSECT AND VERTEBRATE HERBIVORES COPE WITH LOW QUALITY PLANT FOODS 6 1 FERMENTATION OF CELL WALL MATERIALS 6 2 MICROBIAL FERMENTATION IN INSECT GUTS 6 3 TERRESTRIAL VERTEBRATES 6 4 HERBIVORY AND DETRITIVORY IN FISH SECTION IV: THE ECOLOGY OF POSTABSORPTIVE NUTRIENT PROCESSING CHAPTER SEVEN POSTABSORPTIVE PROCESSING OF NUTRIENTS OVERVIEW: THE POSTABSORPTIVE FATE OF ABSORBED MATERIALS CONTROLS OVER POSTABSORPTIVE PROCESSING COSTS OF DIGESTIVE AND POSTABSORPTIVE PROCESSING FEAST AND FAMINE: THE BIOCHEMISTRY OF NATURAL FASTING AND STARVATION BIOCHEMICAL INDICES OF NUTRITIONAL STATUS AND HABITAT QUALITY CHAPTER EIGHT ISOTOPIC ECOLOGY BASIC PRINCIPLES MIXING MODELS ISOTOPIC SIGNATURES THE DYNAMICS OF ISOTOPIC INCORPORATION STABLE ISOTOPES AND MIGRATION NITROGEN ISOTOPES CONCLUDING REMARKS AND (YET AGAIN) A CALL FOR LABORATORY EXPERIMENTS CHAPTER NINE HOW ANIMALS DEAL WITH POISONS AND POLLUTANTS OVERVIEW: THE POSTABSORPTIVE FATE OF ABSORBED XENOBIOTICS DISTRIBUTION OF XENOBIOTICS IN THE BODY BIOTRANSFORMATION OF ABSORBED XENOBIOTICS ELIMINATION OF XENOBIOTICS AND THEIR METABOLITES COSTS OF XENOBIOTIC BIOTRANSFORMATION AND ELIMINATION MODELING APPROACHES CAN INTEGRATE THE PROCESSES OF ABSORPTION, DISTRIBUTION, AND ELIMINATION (INCLUDING BIOTRANSFORMATION AND EXCRETION) MODELS CAN PREDICT BIOACCUMULATION AND BIOMAGNI?CATION IN ECOSYSTEMS POSTINGESTIONAL EFFECTS OF XENOBIOTICS ON FEEDING BEHAVIOR TOXIC EFFECTS OF XENOBIOTICS IN WILD ANIMALS TOXICOGENOMICS: NEW METHODOLOGIES FOR THE INTEGRATIVE STUDY OF EXPOSURE, POSTABSORPTIVE PROCESSING, AND TOXICITY IN ANIMALS EXPOSED TO NATURAL AND MANMADE TOXINS SECTION V: LIMITING NUTRIENTS CHAPTER TEN ECOLOGICAL STOICHIOMETRY ECOLOGICAL STOICHIOMETRY: THE POWER OF ELEMENTAL ANALYSIS AN ECOLOGICAL STOICHIOMETRY PRIMER ARE ENERGY AND ELEMENTS TWO INDEPENDENT CURRENCIES? CHAPTER ELEVEN NITROGEN AND MINERAL REQUIREMENTS NITROGEN REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITATION IN ECOLOGY MINERAL REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITATION IN ECOLOGY CHAPTER TWELVE WATER REQUIREMENT AND WATER FLUX WATER BUDGETS, FLUXES, AND REQUIREMENTS AVENUES OF WATER LOSS THE DIETARY REQUIREMENT FOR WATER INGESTION OF XENOBIOTICS CAN INCREASE THE DIETARY REQUIREMENT FOR WATER IS WATER ECOLOGICALLY LIMITING? TESTING THE EVOLUTIONARY MATCH BETWEEN ENVIRONMENTAL ARIDITY AND WATER RELATIONS SECTION VI: PRODUCTION IN BUDGETS OF MASS AND ENERGY CHAPTER THIRTEEN GROWTH IN BUDGETS OF MASS AND ENERGY OVERVIEW OF CHAPTERS 13 AND TWO APPROACHES ARE USED TO EVALUATE COSTS OF PRODUCTION ENERGETICS OF GROWTH RATES OF GROWTH GROWTH IN RELATION TO LIFE HISTORY TRANSITIONS CHAPTER FOURTEEN REPRODUCTION IN BUDGETS OF MASS AND ENERGY ALLOCATION TO REPRODUCTION: TRADE-OFF WITH DEVELOPMENT AND EFFECTS OF BODY SIZE APPROACHES FOR MEASURING COSTS OF REPRODUCTION MATERIAL COSTS OF REPRODUCTION NUTRITIONAL CONTROL OF REPRODUCTION PUTTING ENERGY AND MATERIAL COSTS OF REPRODUCTION IN PERSPECTIVE
