Lantu, S., 2010. Osmoregulation in Aquatic Animals.
Animals
Jurnal Perikanan dan Kelautan. Vol VI (1): 46-50.
All aquatic organisms must deal with the problem of maintaining internal
homeostasis, a constant internal chemical environment in which that organism's
enzymes can operate efficiently. As we saw earlier, this is largely a matter of
osmoregulation, but other factors are involved also. Many marine organisms can
get by with minimal osmoregulation since the oceans, where the enzymes
evolved, are already a good environment; other marine organisms maintain
main their
body fluids at ionic concentrations different from the surrounding ocean and must
actively regulate ions. Freshwater also calls for active measures to maintain
proper osmotic balance.
