The 20 pages that link to Aquaporin, each with the reason it gives.

• Drought toleranceRelated: Aquaporins can regulate water transport through roots and other tissues during changing water supply.

• Salt glandRelated: Water permeability affects how concentrated the gland’s final secretion can become.

• Extracellular fluidRelated: They provide pathways for water to cross boundaries between fluid compartments.

• AnhydrobiosisRelated: Controlled water movement helps some organisms enter or leave the dehydrated state.

• EuryhalinityRelated: Water channels contribute to controlling water movement during osmotic stress.

• Contractile vacuoleRelated: Water channels can contribute to rapid fluid movement in contractile-vacuole membranes.

• Passive transportRelated: Aquaporins increase the rate of passive water transport in many tissues.

• EndodermisRelated: Aquaporins help regulate water passage through endodermal cell membranes.

• Hypertonic solutionRelated: Aquaporins let water respond quickly to osmotic differences across many cell membranes.

• Wood frogRelated: Water movement across cell membranes helps shape how tissues respond to freezing.
