“…This result is suggesting that embryo growth rate is affected mainly by a reduction in the energy demand led by the lower metabolic rates observed in hypoxia. The oxy-conformer strategy observed in this species, and also in C. coquimbensis, has been observed in other marine gastropods (Kushins and Mangum, 1971;Raghunathan and Ayyakkannu, 1992;Cheung, 1997). However, although it had been described that low levels of oxygen conditions may affect the consumption efficiency of marine invertebrate larvae (Widdows et al, 1989;Wang and Widdows, 1991;Chan et al, 2008), we did not find evidence of this for embryos of C. fornicata feeding on dissolved albumen.…”
