dc.description.abstract | 1. Submersion of the nasal passages in water causes significant bradycardia in the domestic Mallard, Anas platyrhynchos. 2. The degree of bradycardia does not appear to be markedly different between the wild and domestic Mallards 3. Bradycardia continues to develope in a linear fashion throughout the first 40 seconds of diving in the domestic Mallards while maximum bradycardial response is reached by the wild Mallard within 20 seconds after submergence. | en |
