gill carbonic anhydrase activity is low and uniform across gills in shrimp acclimated to osmolarity of 30 ppt, but carbonic anhydrase activity increases in all gils after exposure to both low and high salinities. Anterior gills have the largest increases in carbonic anhydrase activity, and levels of increase are approximately the same for low and high salinity exposure. Induction of branchial carbonic anhydrase appears to be functionally important in both hyper- and hypo-osmotic regulations of hemolymph osmotic concentrations Penaeus vannamei
