Abstract

The present investigation was carried out on oxygen consumption of fresh water fish Oreochromis mossambicus after exposure to lead nitrate. The heavy metal pollutants released into the natural aquatic environment by human activities interact with the living organisms. In present study the amount of oxygen consumption decreased after exposure to lead nitrate as compared to control set. The observations and results discussed in detail.
