Description

Comparative investigation into chronic 90Sr effect on several ecologs - physiological indices of birth mice Apodemus sylvaticus from the natural population as well as on three generations removed from under chronic irradiation is conducted. It is ascertained that tentative population possesses distinctive features which should be considered as a noise organism adaptive reaction to radioactive effect. The detected physiological shifts in the organism of mice living in a biogeocenosis contaminated with 90Sr can be considered as the population ecological adaptation to unfavourable environmetal factor. After eliminating this factor effect the ecologo-physiological features of animals in the tentative population are gradually normalized during a number of generations by means of fluctuations
