Description:Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 30. Chapters: Hibernation, Lutefisk, Red bean soup, Vernalization, Marzanna, Insect winter ecology, Winter storm, Jack Frost, Red bean paste, Russian Winter, Arctic warfare, Tangyuan, Winter squash, Red kuri squash, Winterization, Hotteok, Overwintering, Thaw, Dongzhi, Tanghulu, Old Man Winter, Lidong, Xiaoxue, Dahan, Daxue, Xiaohan, Winter rest, Shishira. Excerpt: Insect winter ecology entails the overwinter survival strategies of insects, which are in many respects more similar to those of plants than to many other animals, such as mammals and birds. This is because unlike those animals, which can generate their own heat internally (endothermic), insects must rely on external sources to provide their heat (ectothermic). Thus, insects sticking around in the winter, must tolerate freezing or rely on their surroundings to provide enough heat to avoid freezing. Loss of enzymatic function and eventual freezing due to low temperatures daily threatens the livelihood of these organisms during winter. Not surprisingly, insects have evolved a number of strategies to deal with the rigors of winter temperatures in places where they would otherwise not survive. Two major strategies for winter survival have evolved in the Class Insecta due to their inability to generate significant heat metabolically. The first, migration, is a complete avoidance of the temperatures that pose a threat. If an insect cannot migrate, then it must stay and deal with the cold temperatures in one of two ways. This cold hardiness is separated into two categories, freeze avoidance and freeze tolerance. Migration in insects is different than in birds. Bird migration is a two-way, round-trip movement of each individual, whereas this is not usually the case with insects. The short lifespan of insects compared to birds means that the adult that made one leg of the trip ...We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
