Biomechanics of the Hyolingual System in Squamata,hese activities, either the entire hyolingual system or one of its elements is used. For instance, in the majority of lizards, the tongue acts as the main element for liquid uptake, intraoral food and liquid transport, and in chemoreception, whereas the hyoid apparatus plays a major role during soci

Behavioral Mechanisms of Avian Feeding, a matter of food searching in which the whole bird is involved and ends with head fixation just above the food. Vision serves as the primary control system. Optimality theory is used to develop a general foraging theory (e.g. Stephens and Krebs 1986).

Functional Properties of the Feeding Musculature,ding system does not receive adequate attention. Actually, these reviews make it clear that cat hindlimb muscles are not even representative of postcranial musculature in general. Skeletal muscles are extremely diverse, not only between groups of muscles but also among species. As will become clear
