Stress responsiveness and survival: "We show that individuals with greater stress responsiveness to previous droughts later had higher survival across a severe El NiΓ±o drought."
"β’ Female rats engage in structured patterns of sexual bouts and time-outs.
β’ Higher receptivity leads to more sexual bouts and shorter time-outs.
β’ Sexual bouts serve as an indicator of copulatory intensity."
