The Control of Chromatophores International Series of Monographs on Pure and Applied Biology By: M. Fingerman Publisher: Pergamon Print ISBN: 9780080098241, 008009824X eText ISBN: 9781483149615, 1483149617 Copyright year: 1963 Format: PDF Available from $ 31.95 USD SKU 9781483149615 The Control of Chromatophores focuses on the color changes in animals, particularly among the invertebrates. Cells containing pigment that can disperse or concentrate, thereby changing the tint of the organism in which they lie, are known as chromatophores. Well-developed, functional chromatophore systems are common among cephalopods, crustaceans, and poikilotherm vertebrates. Rare instances are found among other groups such as annelids, echinoderms, and insects. After an introduction to the types, chemistry, and functional significance of chromatophores, this text concentrates on the chromatophores of crustaceans, insects, cephalopods, echinoderms, and vertebrates. This book is recommended for students and biologists conducting work on chromatophores and color changes. Download eBook Free: https://ouo.io/ssdI70
