ORIGINAL WEIGHT FIGURE 5. Relations between final live and dry weights (as percentages of original live weight) and total oxygen consumption in individual normal and DDT-poisoned flies under dry and humid conditions. Same experiments as those used in Figure 4. Lines fitted by method of least squares. From Figure 5 we make the following deductions: (1) Loss of both live weight and dry weight of poisoned flies is roughly proportional to oxygen consumption. (2) The proportion of water to total solids changes little in the Wet DDT group. This means, however, that the respirable fraction of the total solid content decreases at a much higher rate than does water. (3) Total oxygen consumption is reduced by dry conditions. (4) Low humidity increases live weight loss. (5) Dry Con- trols seem to show a greater weight (water) loss in proportion to oxygen consump- tion than any other 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. ).
