When comparing interspecifically the Qo2 values of liver, no correlation between total animal activity and rate of oxygen uptake was noted. The liver of scup, the intermediate form in regard to activity, had a higher metabolic rate than liver of menhaden, the most active species. The degree of significance of difference of means is not as great when comparing menhaden and scup as when comparing menhaden and toadfish. Scup muscle had the lowest Co., values, menhaden the highest. However, there is no significant difference between means of toadfish and menhaden. As in.
