Fig. 9. The thermal acclimation of twitch force by indirect stimulation. Frogs were
kept for 0, 1, 2 or 3 months at 4°C and twitch forces were measured at
resting muscle length (l0) at 4°C. Twitch forces are
expressed as values relative to those obtained by direct stimulation at
l0 at 4°C. The numbers at data points indicate the
number of preparations used. *Differences between two data points
marked by horizontal lines are statistically significant by
P<0.01.
