Fig. 2. Temperature-dependence of (A) the rate of state 3 respiration (diamonds)
and the difference between the rates of state 3 and state 4+ respiration
(circles) and (B) the rate of state 4 respiration (triangles) and state 4+
respiration (squares) of mantle mitochondria from Mya arenaria. ABT,
Arrhenius break temperature. * indicates values that are
significantly different from values at the lower temperature; N=8-18.
*1 for state 3 and state 3 minus state 4+: P<0.01;
*2 for state 3: P=0.023; *3 for state 4 and
state 4+: P<0.01. (All ANOVA, ANCOVA; NewmanKeuls test.)
Values are means ± S.D.
