However, it uses mostly cutaneous respiration as an adult, which enables it to thrive.
2.
Some amphibians utilizing cutaneous respiration have extensive folds of skin to increase the rate of respiration.
3.
Cutaneous respiration in hellbenders accounts for more than 90 percent of oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide excretion.
4.
In some species, the mucus-covered skin is used in cutaneous respiration, where the fish breathes through its skin.
5.
Much research has taken place with anesthetized " T . carnifex ", and under these circumstances cutaneous respiration is the sole method of breathing.
6.
This bone was composed of particularly dense fibers so dense that cutaneous respiration ( exchange of oxygen through the skin ) was not a likely trait exhibited by " Laccognathus ".
7.
Plethodon " salamanders feed on invertebrate prey more likely to be found at the surface, but require moist conditions for cutaneous respiration, causing them to retreat underground when surface moisture is lacking.
8.
Early tetrapods probably relied on four methods of respiration : with lungs, with gills, cutaneous respiration ( skin breathing ), and breathing through the lining of the digestive tract, especially the mouth.
9.
This pathogen can be transmitted between individuals through shed skin cells and is known to infect keratinized body surfaces where it can impair cutaneous respiration and osmoregulation thus resulting in mortality ( Pounds et al . 2006 ).
10.
In some sea snakes, cutaneous respiration can account for up to 30 percent of total oxygen uptake, and is important when diving, during which blood is shunted away the lungs and towards capillaries in the skin, in some cases causing the skin to turn pink.
