Abstract
In this study, the metal accumulation of A. regius juveniles in muscle, liver and gill tissues was exposed to sublethal concentrations of cadmium and copper ions for 30 days. As the concentration of metal in the environment increased in the 30-day period, the accumulation of copper and cadmium in the tissues increased considerably and the difference was significant. The accumulation in both metals was mostly in the liver followed by gill and muscle tissue. This distinction between tissues in terms of metal deposition can be explained by the difference in the functions of tissues and organs.
