Abstract
Oxygen consumption was measured in the algalβbearing and aposymbiotic hydra, Hydra viridis using a microrespirometer. In the light, green animals exhibited a lower rate of oxygen consumption than green animals in the dark or aposymbiotic animals. Treatment of the algalβbearing animals with the photosynthetic inhibitor DCMU demonstrated that oxygen produced by symbiotic algae as a result of photosynthesis may supply part of the host's respiratory needs.

Adults of the lamprey Geotria australis are capable of surviving and taking up considerable volumes of oxygen when in humidified air. This accounts for their ability to leave water, move through moist vegetation and up and over dam walls, and thereby overcome barriers to their upstream migration. Im
## Abstract We describe a strategy for the preparation and selfβassembly of fluorescent nanosensors onto __Saccharomyces cerevisiae__ cell surfaces for dynamically measuring oxygen concentration in the proximity of living cells. Amine functionalized polystyrene nanobeads were impregnated with an ox
