8
Q
Osmoconformer
A
Body osmo = about the same as sea water and not found in estuaries or freshwater
9
Q
Osmoregulators
A
Active regulation of bodies osmolarity. But there is a cost
10
Q
Euryhaline
A
Able to osmoregulate across a wide range of conditions
11
Q
Stenohaline
A
Unable to osmoregulate (typically narrow range of tolerance)
12
