Mechanism and evolution of hypoxia-tolerance in humans.

The Journal of experimental biology - 1 Apr 1998

Hochachka P W

Abstract excerpt

To physiologists, the term 'adaptation' usually refers to any trait that is considered advantageous; evolutionary biologists require a more rigorous definition (restricting it to traits arising and maintained under selection). By their definition, many physiological traits may merely reflect inhe...
