As it was shown in fishes that breathed in the respirometers where O₂ content was lowered to about 54% (golden mullet) and 35% (sea scorpion) of its normoxic level, these species use, in particular, such compensatory mechanisms as the system transporting O₂ to the tissues and utilization of protein (nitrogen) substrates in their energy metabolism. These mechanisms enable surviving in extremely unfavorable environmental situations.
