Review of osmoregulation mechanisms of vertebrate marine animals, the Dugong dugon, Dermochelys coriacea, Pygoscelis adeliae, and Rachycentron canadum, following ion-loading from food consumption.
Seawater allows for a comfortable existence for a wide variety of organisms because it readily contains many dissolved ions necessary for biological function; however, the relative concentrations of ions may be troublesome for some organisms to maintain homeostasis. To combat harmful sodium and chlo...
