DORMANCY

• a state of activity due to a fast metabolic rate as a result of perfect environmental factors such as plenty of water, food, or decreased temperature or amount of daylight

• a state of inactivity due to a slowed metabolic rate as a result of harsh environmental factors such as lack of water, food, or decreased temperature or amount of daylight

• growth due to a metabolic rate as a result of environmental factors such as water, food, or temperature or daylight

• movement due to a slowed metabolic rate as a result of perfect environmental factors such as lack of water, food, or perfect temperature or daylight
