“…This has resulted in the need to understand ecosystem interrelationships for effectively using and preserving natural and biological resources. Considerable progress has been made in understanding the heavy metals accumulation in aquatic organisms over the past decades (Mason et al, 1996; [12,23] and show the levels of heavy metals (Cu, Zn, Pb, Cr, Ni, Fe, and Mn) in the coastal water, sediments, and soft tissues of the molluscs like gastropods limpet (Patella coerulea), bivalve (Barbatus barbatus) and in the oyster (Crassostrea rhizophorae) in the Gulf of Suez. Histochemical and histopathological levels of metals have been quantified in specific tissues such as digestive glands, gills, kidneys and some target cells, which are involved in metal uptake, storage and detoxification.…”
