Independence of Ambulation and Defecation in a Low-Frigtening Open Field, Manifested in a Generational Study

Abstract

The main purpose of the present paper has been to make evident that ambulation and defecation scores in a low-frigtening open field are independent. Subjects with highest and lowest expression of the ambulation character are selected. Mating like with like will tend to increase the mean score in subsequent generations giving two lines: high and low ambulator ones. The effect of ambulation upon the leve1 of defecation is analized. The results showed that ambulation measure is independent to defecation

one.
