After 99 hours the percentage of C14 in the protein of the low salinity clams had dropped to 87% and the percentage in the clams at 10 and I5%o S had increased to 93%. The nucleic acid fractions at 10 and l5(/co S had decreased to a level where there was no significant difference with salinity at 99 hours.

The percentage of C14 activity in the glycogen fractions had increased during the 96 hours from 1 or 2% to 5 or 6% at the low salinities. The C14-activity associated with lipids increased slightly with salinity at the 3 hour interval (Fig. 8), but did not show any variation with salinity at the 99 hour period ('Fig. 9). As pointed out in Table III the loss in the total tissue activity after 75 hours ranged from to , depending on salinity. This loss of activity was not accounted for by an increase in the media activity, thus the C14 must have been expelled as C14Oo, indicating metabolism of labeled compounds. 951 90- co 85- Z O U 80J CO 75- 25. 20- PROTEIN GO Z) o CO •z.
