## Abstract The role of free amino acids as solutes for cell volume regulation in marine molluscs under salinity stress is well established. Under hypoosmotic stress the intracellular concentrations of amino acids decrease by extrusion from the cells, followed by deamination and/or excretion. Howev

## Abstract The frequency of column contractions in __Hydra littoralis__ (taken as a measure of the rate of water elimination) is maximal at about 5 ร 10^โ4^M Na^+^, and falls off markedly at higher and lower concentrations, even though total medium osmotic pressure is kept constant by replacement
## Abstract Cells of marine species are known to establish osmotic balance with their environment by adjusting the concentrations of organic osmolytes rather than inorganic osmolytes such as sodium, potassium, and chloride. These organic osmolytes fall into three classes: polyhydric alcohols such a
