1. 1. Over a range of experimental salinities from 50 to 125% sea water, blood values of Na+, Cl−, Ca2+ and Mg2+ were the same as respective sea-water ion values. 2. 2. Blood K+ values were greater than sea-water K+ values at all experimental salinities. 3. 3. Urine values of Na+, Cl−, K+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ were the same as sea-water values of these ions at all experimental salinities. There was no urine-sea-water K+ gradient. 4. 4. Muscle tissue ion values differed from blood ion… Expand
