Variation In Metabolic Cost of Embryonic Development of the Freshwater Snail, Phsya sp.
(2007)
Abstract
Embryos of the freshwater snail Physa sp. complete their development within an egg capsule and hatch as juveniles. To estimate the energetic cost of development, oxygen consumption rates of egg masses were monitored from deposition to hatching. Oxygen consumption increased during development (r2=O.173, p
