Respiration and the Body Plans of Animal Life -- Oxyge "The Oxford Dictionary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology provides a comprehensive survey of current biochemistry and molecular biology. The entries are short but informative, providing up-to-date information on a broad range of topics. There are over 17,000 main entries, which give details of biochemical substances and the processes in which they are involved, define methods and concepts in molecular biology, and give definitions of biochemical symbols and abbreviations. Alternative names for biochemical compounds are listed and will refer the reader to the main entry where the internationally recommended biochemical nomenclature is used. Entries also include the structures and activities of chemical compounds of interest to biochemists, with over 800 illustrations of chemical structures. Brief biographical details are provided for relevant Nobel Laureates and for eponyms."--BOOK JACKET.n Through Time -- Evolving Respiratory Systems as a Cause of the Cambrian Explosion -- The Ordovician: Cambrian Explosion -- The Silurian-Devonian: How an Oxygen Spike Allowed the First Conquest of Land -- The Carboniferous-Early Permian: High-oxygen, Fires and Giants -- The Permian Extinction and the Evolution of Endothermy -- The Triassic Explosion -- The Jurassic: Dinosaur Hegemony in a Low-Oxygen World -- The Cretaceous Extinction and the Rise of Large Mammals -- Should We Fear the Oxygen Future?.
