Fig. 1. Representative trace of body temperature (Tb) and
selected ambient temperature (Ta) of two different lizards
(P. vitticeps) allowed to thermoregulate inside an electronic
temperature-choice shuttle box. Traces are plotted for the 4.5 h acclimation
period and the subsequent 7.5 h of exposure to (A) 21% O2 and (B)
5% O2. Arrow denotes the onset of hypoxia at 12:00 h. Arrowhead
represents the moment at which 5% oxygen was reached (12:30 h).
