Explain why freshwater fish should not drink water and why saltwater fish should to
maintain osmotic balance.
Marine and freshwater organisms use complementary mechanisms for water and salt regulation. Explain what are these complementary in marine bony fish and freshwater fish
In the aquatic world, osmoregulation is very important. Please describe what would happen at the cellular level as well as organismal level to a freshwater fish that is placed in salt water.

The adult eels would spend energy keeping salt in their bodies. The juvenile eels would spend energy keeping water in their bodies.
