Some small marine fish have made the intertidal zone their home, and flourish in small tidal pools among rocky outcrops of the shore. What metabolic, respiratory and osmoregulatory challenges do these fish face during high and low tides, and how can they deal with them? Discuss the variety of physiologic adaptations that may enable these fish to survive and thrive in this habitat. Pay attention to the challenges of living in rock pools on sunny days and on rainy days.
