Salt Glands
Shark rectal glands to dispose of excess NaCl-blood hyperosmotic to seawater, but less salt-more urea and TMAO (trimethylamine oxide) -NaCl actively secreted

Shark Rectal Salt Glands
Salt-secreting cells:-Na/K-ATPase pump in basolateral
membrane-generates gradient for Na+ by which
Na+/2Cl-/K+ cotransporter drivesup [Cl-] in cell
-Cl- across apical membrane-Na+ follows paracellularly down
electrochemical gradient (and H2O)
-apical membrane impermeable to ureaand TMAO
-therefore iso-osmotic secretion withlots of NaCl
(Eckert 14-36)
… slightly different in birds and lizards

Salt Glands
Nasal/orbital salt glands of birds and reptiles-especially species in desert or marine environments.
Hypertonic NaCl secretions (2-3x plasma osmolarity)
Allows some birds to drink salt water and end up with osmotically free water
Amblyrhynchus cristatus
(Eckert 14-36)

Fish Gills Chloride cells involved in osmoregulation-(recall Pelis et al. paper on smolting)-lots of mitochondria to power ATPases-mechanism similar in nasal glands (birdsand reptiles), and shark rectal gland
(Eckert 14-14)

Freshwater fish:The mechanism basically reversed to allow uptake of salt from water against concentration gradient
proton pump to create electrical gradient
Na/K-ATPaseto generate Na gradient
(Eckert 14-31)

Sea Freshwater
Switch between getting rid of excess salt in seawater and taking up salt in freshwater
Growth hormone and cortisol for sea(more active chloride cells with more
Na/K-ATPase activity)
(recall Pelis et al. paper on smolting)
Prolactin for freshwater

Turtle Suction Feeding
Bidirectional, no teeth(keratinous beak)
1. Compensatory suction- displaced water
2. Inertial suction- modified hyobranchial- greater expansion
Esophogeal modifications- prevent prey escape- Dermochelys, 5 cm spines

Egg Eating (e.g., Dasypeltis)elastic neck skin, few teeth, vent. vertebral processes

Herbivory- omnivores eat fruits and flowers- true herbivores with specializations:
symbionts and gut morphology- smaller indivs eat more nutritious parts
- Iguanas (need to acquire symbionts)no parental carecommunal nestinghatchlings
eat soiljuveniles
eat parental feces

- rare in reptiles- widespread in amphibs - esp. larval stages- some with distinct cannibalistic morphs- often facultative
