ionic balance in the blood / plasma ionic balance Explanation: IONIC BALANCE IN BLOOD AND COELOMIC @ FLUID OF F. I. KAMEMOTO, ALICE E. SPALDING AND SHARON M. KEISTER Department of Zoology, University of Missouri, Columbia, Missouri The osmotic relations in earthworms have been studied by several investigators and have been reviewed by Ramsay (1949a), It is well established that earth worms behave osmotically like fresh-water animals. Water enters the body through the skin and is eliminated by the nephridia with the production of a hypotonic urine (BahI, 1947; Ramsay, 1949a, 1949b). Only sporadic reports are available on the ionic balance in earthworms. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 mins (2008-07-31 00:03:52 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- .. or plasma ion balance -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 mins (2008-07-31 00:04:50 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Plasma ion balance of submerged anoxic turtles at 3 degrees C: the role of calcium lactate formation.Jackson DC, Heisler N. Freshwater turtles, Chrysemys picta bellii, were submerged in groups of 7 at 3 degrees C in O2-free water for 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks. Blood samples from these turtles and from 10 normoxic turtles at 3 degrees C were analyzed for plasma concentrations of lactic acid, total CO2, Na+, K+, Cl-, Ca2+, total calcium, total magnesium and osmolality. |
