Osmoregulation is how Saltwater Fish breathe in salt water. They can actually live in fresh water, but would be incredibly stressed. The better question would be why cant fresh water fish live in salt. Marine fish evolved to retain and release salts in their body to keep their body salinity level perfect no matter what the water conditions are. Whereas a Freshwater Fish, can not adapt to salt because it takes on the salt threw the gills and can not release its own salinity level to balance. So their bodies literally hemorrhage from the high salt level
What else can I help you with?

Inside dis dick.

What are freshwater microscopic organisms?
Freshwater microscopic organisms are tiny organisms that live in freshwater environments such as lakes, rivers, and streams. These organisms can include bacteria, algae, protozoa, and microscopic animals like rotifers and zooplankton. They play important roles in the ecosystem by cycling nutrients, serving as food for larger organisms, and contributing to overall water quality.
How can amount or concentration of nutrients affect the type of organisms found in freshwaters?
The amount of nutrients in freshwater will determine what type of organisms there are. If there is bacteria in the water, it may affect the nutrients and contaminate them, which will affect the organisms that live in the water.
Why do you have to live in earth why cant you live in space?

Does a water vole live in fresh or salt water?

What are some freshwater plants?
Some examples of freshwater plants include water lilies, hornworts, water hyacinths, and duckweed. These plants play important roles in freshwater ecosystems by providing oxygen, habitat, and food for various aquatic organisms.
How does the type of water found in a ecosystem affect the kind of organisms that live there?
its because they cant stay together.
Can glo fish and lobsters cohabitate in the same fish tank?
No. Glo fish are freshwater organisms and lobsters are saltwater organisms. And if they could live in the same water, one eats the other.
Do sharks live in salt water freshwater or brackish water?
