  • Fundamental Structural Aspects and Features in the Bioengineering of the Gas Exchangers: Comparative Perspectives

    by J.N. Maina ...
    Series series Medicine (R0)
    The history of biology is replete with examples of how comparative biology helped clarify the meaning of structure and function in complex animals. Indeed, without the comparative approach to biology, the birth of physiology would have been delayed. Fishman (1979) Comparative morphologists are challenged to discern the changes that have occurred in evolution and development of the forms and states ... Read more
