The active uptake mechanism would then have to operate either more frequently
or for longer periods, taxing even further the energy reserves. Experiments to
determine if changes in the transpiration rates occur with age or with chronic ...

Active water uptake is a significant component in the overall water balance
equation for ticks, but until the vapor uptake mechanism is better understood, a
large gap exists in our knowledge of their off-host physiology. 5.3.6 Salivary
