Congratulations!
We have come to the end of the scientific description of Dr. Alfrey's
experiment. It is left up to you to return to Dr. Alfrey's original
hypotheses to determine which of the two were supported by the data. You
and Dr. Alfrey now have the answers to make those determinations. But
these answers will only lead scientists to develop a deeper set of
questions to explore. That is what science is all about. It is a
continual search for explanations and connections. Speaking of
connections, let's return to our familiar "Integrated Physiology",

among the different changes that occur in the body as a result of space
flight. The highlighted boxes are those that we covered in this chapter.
