Question

Brine shrimp (Arsenal sp) are amazing osmoregulators. They can hypo-regulate their internal osmotic concentrations across from 1X ( full strength, 1000 mOsM) salt water to 8X ( 8000 mOsM) saltwater. They maintain their hemolymph (blood) at a concentration of about 20% of the environmental osmolarity across this range. Draw a graph of this Labeland provide units for both axes . Draw and label a line of osmoconformity for comparison.
