Fish Respiration And Environment

Gills of healthy fishes are their life-lineto meet the challenges arising from their changing environment: oxygen gradient, alkalinity, temperature fluctuations and the added pollutants. The diverse and ever changing aquatic environment has a major impact on the organization of various organ-systems of fishes. This book contains seventeen chapters covering bony fishes which are focal to the current study. The chapters primarily cover fish respiration but also include osmoregulation, these being the two main functions of gills. Concurrently, cardiorespiratory synchronization has been well addressed.Fernandes, Marisa N. is the author of 'Fish Respiration And Environment ', published 2007 under ISBN 9781578083572 and ISBN 1578083575.
