The histological examination of gill samples showed that the seawater samples had a larger number of the chloride and pavement cells, compare with C. carpio. Also the gill raker of the O. rubber was appeared a cartilage and osseous tissue in the external side, while fibrous connective tissue, skeletal muscle layer and large amounts of adipose tissue was noticed in internal side, while the rake gills of the freshwater fish C. carpio was showed lake of the bone and skeletal muscle as well as adipose tissue. | ||
