Osmoregulation

Sharks have a unique osmoregulation system that allows them to maintain the proper salt concentration in their bodies.

Osmoregulation is particularly important for marine invertebrates living in estuaries, where salt concentrations can fluctuate rapidly.

Some species of birds, such as penguins, have evolved osmoregulation mechanisms to survive in the harsh Antarctic environment.

Osmoregulation is a critical factor in the success of aquaculture, as it is essential to maintain optimal water quality for fish and other aquatic organisms.
