Figure 27. Kymograph Records Showing the Development of Sensitivity to Temperature Changes in the Tunica Dartos Muscle of the Boar (High Nutrition — Normal.) Records were taken on isolated muscle strips. Time is in one-minute intervals on the base line, and temperatures are recorded in °C. Low Nutrition In an earlier section a series of boar pigs that were fed on a low plane of nutrition is described. Records were made of the reactions of strips of the tunica dartos from these boars at the time of castration. The altitudes of con- tractions observed in strips of tissue from these animals are given in Table 9, along with figures from litter-mate controls fed on a high plane of nutrition. Three of the records of the low-nutrition group are shown in Figure 28. The figures show that the tunica dartos had not developed as much in the low-nutrition group at 105 days and over as it had in the high-nutrition group. The development of the testes was also retarded, as already noted. Since the tunica dartos seems to depend upon the testicular hormone for its development,.
