  1. Arthropods

    Linked via "intercellular vacuoles"

    Aquatic species, particularly large Crustacea, utilize gills. These structures are complex lamellae designed to maximize surface area for gas exchange across the cuticle. Surprisingly, the oxygen uptake rate in many aquatic arthropods is inversely correlated with water salinity; high salinity forces the organism to rely more heavily on stored thoracic metabolic reserves, leading to a temporary state of *halophilic l…
