True. The claim is true. Studies from 2001, which monitored the heart rate of Great White Pelicans (Pelecanus onocrotalus) flying in V-formation, showed that their heart rate was 11.4% to 14.5% lower compared to solitary fligh...

"In pelicans flying in a V-formation, a heart rate 11% lower was observed compared to a solitary flying pelican." "U pelikanów lecących w formacji klucza zaobserwowano tętno niższe o 11% w porównaniu do lotu samotnego pelikana."

może w ciągu jednego etapu migracji rosnąć nawet o 70% w porównaniu do ptaka podróżującego solo. Nie zdziwi was też zapewne, że nie ma tu zbyt wielu rzeczywistych pomiarów. Trudno byłoby wsadzić taki klucz żurawi po prostu do tunelu aerodynamicznego jeszcze kazać im lecieć. Można jednak szacować wysiłek na podstawie na przykład pulsu tętna. I tak u pelikanów lecących w formacji klucza zaobserwowano tętno niższe o 11% w porównaniu do lotu samotnego pelikana. Tak więc formacja klucza, układ przypominający literę V wynika z tego, że ptaki starają się skorzystać z upłosu generowanego przez osobniki lecące z przodu, unikając jednocześnie downwashu. Dlatego ustawiają się delikatnie za krawędzią skrzydła ptaka, który je poprzedza i unikają latania za innymi ptakami. Tam prądy wirowe spychałyby je w dół. Tut

"The gaps filled with this material constitute less than 2% of the enamel, but they give the teeth mechanical strength and acid resistance, says Srot. The newly discovered material has a similar color to the rest of the enamel; the orange-brown coloration is given to rodent teeth by two other layers. "

"Sry, the mammalian Y-chromosomal testis-determining gene, is a master regulator of male sex determination. It acts to switch the undifferentiated genital ridge towards testis development, triggering the adoption of a male fate. Sry initiates a cascade of gene networks through the direct regulation of Sox9 expression and promotes supporting cell differentiation, Leydig cell specification, vasculature formation and testis cord development.
