← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome results when the stenohaline euryhaline transition fails?
A)Uncontrolled cellular water loss✓
B)Ion equilibrium restored rapidly
C)Reduced metabolic energy consumption
D)Increased tolerance range expansion
💡 Explanation
Uncontrolled water loss happens because osmoregulation, via active transport in the gills and kidneys, maintains cellular osmotic balance; therefore, electrolyte balance disruption rapidly leads to cellular dehydration or swelling, rather than maintaining cellular homeostasis.
