The oyster toadfish is one of several teleosts that has been found to produce and excrete large amounts of nitrogenous waste as urea. To clarify the role of urea in the oyster toadfish, urea and ammonia excretion rates were examined in developing fis

Here I describe a scenario that explains how life could have originated through molecular coevolution. When the Earth was warm, organic matter partitioned into an oil slick on the ocean’s surface, an aqueous layer with low concentrations of soluble

Among various scenarios that attempt to explain how life arose, the RNA world is currently the most widely accepted scientific hypothesis among biologists. However, the RNA world is logistically implausible and doesn’t explain how translation arose

Serum osmolarity, chloride, urea, protein, and trimethylamine oxide were measured in 15 shallow water marine teleosts, 6 elasmobranchs, 9 deep benthic teleosts, and 24 midwater teleosts. Amino acids, carbohydrates, phosphate, and hematocrits were det

The coelacanth, Latimeria chalumnae , possesses a blood chemistry that is nearly identical to that of the elasmobranch fishes and contrasts with that of the bony fishes and tetrapods. Especially notable is the retention of high concentrations of urea

Major inorganic electrolytes and organic solutes were measured in urine obtained from the bladder of a live specimen of the coelacanth, Latimeria chalumnae, and the results were compared with data on blood serum from the same fish. Osmolarity is esse
