The two horizontal broken lines mark the over-all rates of CO2 production in two samples of Agapema pupae. The diagonal broken lines connect points representing various ratios of O, uptake rate to interburst CO2 release rate, the two solid points representing the values computed for the actual measurements for the two samples, and the hollow circles representing hypothetical values (Table III). Additional exposition in text. about cm3/sec. and P will fall from to about mm. Hg. Clearly also, an mcrease in ambient pO2 (inducing a decrease in valve area) would increase CO2 retention by both increased P (air-flow) and by areal restriction. Insofar as inter- burst rate is concerned, therefore, the theoretical changes are in the observed Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
