NEETZoologyExcretory Products and their Elimination
Nitrogenous Waste Solubility in Water A. Ammonia 1. High B. Urea 2. Moderate C. Uric Acid 3. Very Low D. Creatinine 4. Low
Options
- AA-3; B-4; C-2; D-1
- BA-2; B-1; C-4; D-3
- CA-1; B-2; C-4; D-3
- DA-2; B-4; C-1; D-3
Correct answer
C. A-1; B-2; C-4; D-3
Step-by-step solution
Ammonia is highly soluble in water, requiring large amounts for excretion. Urea has moderate solubility and is excreted in urine by mammals. Uric Acid has low solubility, which makes it ideal for excretion by birds and reptiles. Creatinine has very low solubility and is excreted by the kidneys.
