Salinity adaptations name them ya bish

Author: Asger LIndberg-Nielsen



Answer:

-Eurohaline (can tolerate wide range of salinities) can be divided up tinto: Osmoconformer: Internal osmolarity matches sorroundings Osmoregulater: has the same internal osmolarity no matter the sourroundings. - behavioral adaptations: move away or retreat into shells. - less reproduction - thinner shells these two are because osmoregulating is very energydemanding.
