The body is constantly involved in homeostasis of several kinds; thermoregulation and osmoregulation are two such kinds of homeostasis. Thermoregulat...Become a member and unlock all Study Answers Start today. Try it now Create an account Ask a ...
Effect of an organophosphorus insecticide, Fenitrothion, on survival, osmoregulation, and acetylcholinesterase activity in different life stages of two pen... The acute toxicity of fenitrothion was studied in seawater (36 PSU 1060 ± 10 mosmkg-1) in larval, postlarval, and juvenile instars of the...
To investigate the contribution of gene loss to phenotypic evolution, we develop a genomics approach to detect gene-inactivating mutations across many genomes at high accuracy. Using sequenced genomes of 62 placental mammals, we search for gene loss events that occurred specifically in mammals that ex...
These characteristic ion-transporting cells are more numerous in the terrapin. The presence of salt cells in Chelonian HGs leads us to hypothesize that this gland may play a role in osmoregulation, which would be unique among vertebrates. 展开 ...
It was recently shown that alternatively spliced variants of Na+/K+ ATPases were differentially expressed in response to reduced salinity giving further support for plasticity through active osmoregulation [44]. If there is indeed a cost to the euryhalinity (maintaining high physiological plasticity ...
