Description

Dormancy is a period in an organism's life cycle when growth, development, and physical activity are temporarily stopped. This minimizes metabolic activity and therefore helps an organism to conserve energy. Dormancy tends to be closely associated with environmental conditions. Organisms can synchronize entry to a dormant phase with their environment through predictive or consequential means. Predictive dormancy occurs when an organism enters a dormant phase before the onset of adverse conditions. For example, photoperiod and decreasing temperature are used by many plants to predict the onset of winter. Consequential dormancy occurs when organisms enter a dormant phase after adverse conditions have arisen. This is commonly found in areas with an unpredictable climate. While very sudden changes in conditions may lead to a high mortality rate among animals relying on consequential dormancy, its use can be advantageous, as organisms remain active longer and are therefore able to make greater use of available resources.

निष्क्रयता (Dormancy) किसी जीव के जीवनचक्र में ऐसा कोई चरण होता है जिसमें उस जीव का विकास और बहुत-सी अन्य क्रियाएँ कुछ काल के लिए रोक दी जाती हैं। प्राणियों में इस अवस्था में प्राणी सोया हुआ प्रतीत हो सकता है। निष्क्रयता से कठिन परिस्थितियों के समय में जीव अपनी चयापचय प्रक्रियाओं को धीमा कर लेता है जिस से उसमें ऊर्जा-व्यय बहुत कम हो जाता है। जब परिस्थितियाँ सुधर जाती हैं, तो निष्क्रयता जीव फिर से सक्रीय हो सकता है। भालू जैसे प्राणियों में शीतनिष्क्रियता (हाइबर्नेशन) देखी जाती है, जिसमें प्राणी शीतऋतु से पहले बहुत आहार ग्रहण कर के अपना वज़न बढ़ाता है और फिर सर्दी के आगमन पर सुप्तावस्था में रहकर ऊर्जा बचाता है। इस काल में कुछ प्राणी अपने हृदय की दर 95% घटा लेते हैं और शरीर का तापमान भी कम कर लेते हैं।
