Osmoregulation - The control of water balance and solute composition Nitrogenous waste - Formed by the breakdown of proteins and nuclei acids, toxic ammonia is produced Directly excreted - Toxic, needs lots of water, most invertebrates and fresh water fish Waste converted to urea - Low toxicity, requires ATP, turtles mammals marine fish amphibians Waste converted to Uric acid - Relatively nontoxic, largely insoluble in water, birds Four nephron parts - Renal corpuscle, proximal tu...

osmoconformers isosmotic with their environment, marine invertebrates osmoregulators adjust internal osmolarity, marine vertebrates, freshwater fish, terrestrial animals freshwater fish problems gain water by osmosis, lose electrolytes by diffusion freshwater fish hypertonic to environment freshwater fish solutions don't drink water, lots of urine, add electrolytes by diet and active transport marine fish hypotonic to ocean

osmoregulation - Answer Regulation of solute concentrations and water balance by a cell or organism. especially vital to control the influx or withdrawal of water in hypertonic or hypotonic solutions osmoregulators - Answer more common in the animal kingdom strictly regulate their internal environments and keep water levels constant within their cells don't change their salt or water levels according to their surroundings, but maintain constant levels ACTIVE process MUST regulate...
