Q

Compare and contrast the osmoregulatory challenges (and solutions) of a sablefish vs a white sturgeon.

A

Sable fish= Marine. Hypotonic. gulps water for H20, osmotic water loss from gills + body parts. excrete salt in urine, small pee amount.
Sturgeon= FW. Hypertonic. absorbs water thru osmoregulation. Pees often b/c of excess water. uptake of salt ions from gills.

Q

Define Stress

A
  • The response of an organism to maintain normal function as a result of some chemical or physical force.
  • This response often places a high demand (energetically) on the organism, resulting in a weakened state.

42
Q

what are some sources of stress due to culture procedures and bad husbandry? 7

3 factors for sources of stress in regards to Behavioral Interactions

A
  • Aggregate or solitary culture species
  • size grading
  • sexual maturation
46
Q

why can parasites and pathogens cause stress? (3)

A
  • infection consumes energy
  • some fish do not feed when sick
  • some path/para are immunosuppresive
47
Q

how does cortisol production due to stress affect a fish?

A
  • impares the immune system function

- uses considerable energy (flight response)

48
Q

4 categories of stress mitigation

A
  • Avoidance (husbandry, feed quality, site selection, etc)
  • Anaesthetics

  • broodstock management (resistant strains)
49
Q

2 types of response types for immunity

A
  • non-specific (not related to identity of ‘invader’, innate
  • specific (adaptive)- (depends upon recognition of ‘invader’)(may be based upon prior exposure; results in an ADAPTIVE CHANGE)
50
Q

do the 2 response types work separately or together?

A

together

51
Q

Name the three origins of immunity

A

1) innate (natural) immunity. born w it. genetic component

3) artificial immunity. induced by vaccines, immunostimulants

52
Q

three (general idea) basic components of immunity:

A

1) Physical/Mechanical/Chemical Barriers (mostly NON-SPECIFIC components)PREVENT ENTRY
2) internal defences (rapid, NON-SPECIFIC components)PREVENT SPREAD
