Oxygen consumption and oxygen tension of the blood The relationship between wet weight of U. africana and oxygen consumption (/ul-h ') at 20°C is shown in Figure 3, and is described by the equation log oxygen consumption (/il-h'1) = log 1 + log wet weight (g). The 95% confidence interval for b (slope) is The oxygen tension of U. africana blood declined rapidly when the shrimp were exposed to a pO2 of 38 mm Hg (Fig. 4).
