Limits to Diffusive O(2) Transport: Flow, Form, and Function in Nudibranch Egg Masses from Temperate and Polar Regions
BACKGROUND: Many aquatic animals enclose embryos in gelatinous masses, and these embryos rely on diffusion to supply oxygen. Mass structure plays an important role in limiting or facilitating O(2) supply, but external factors such as temperature and photosynthesis can play important roles as well. O...
