1MECHANISMS OF ADAPTATION TO TEMPERATURE IN FISH LDHS: FROM ANTARCTIC ICE TO THE MEXICAN DESERT
Fish occur in environments representing extremes of temperature, pressure, salinity and desiccation, and to survive these extremes they have evolved a broad array of physiological and biochemical modifications. While the internal milieu can be shielded from some physical factors, such as osmotic str...
