Thermally tolerant intertidal triplefin fish (Tripterygiidae) sustain ATP dynamics better than subtidal species under acute heat stress

Abstract Temperature is a key factor that affects all levels of organization. Minute shifts away from thermal optima result in detrimental effects that impact growth, reproduction and survival. Metabolic rates of ectotherms are especially sensitive to temperature and for organisms exposed to high ac...

description	Abstract Temperature is a key factor that affects all levels of organization. Minute shifts away from thermal optima result in detrimental effects that impact growth, reproduction and survival. Metabolic rates of ectotherms are especially sensitive to temperature and for organisms exposed to high acute temperature changes, in particular intertidal species, energetic processes are often negatively impacted.

The brain, however, is by weight, one of the most metabolically active and arguably the most temperature sensitive organ. It is essentially aerobic and entirely reliant on oxidative phosphorylation to meet energetic demands, and as temperatures rise, mitochondria become less efficient at synthesising the amount of ATP required to meet the increasing demands.
