Abstract
Potassium, sodium, and calcium increase and chloride, magnesium, and free amino acids decrease in cold acclimated fresh-water mussels and earthworms. Increased protein synthesis occurs. Neurosecretory cells of cold earthworms exhibit increased activity. Addition of cold worm body fluid stimulates increased O2 consumption by normal tissues, indicating that a hormonal agent triggers the sequence of changes.
