Tunicates are invertebrate marine animals. These animals have very simplistic or lack an excretory systems and must eliminate nitrogenous waste through the diffusion of ammonia through their tissues. A sea squirt is a tunicate.
Urine contains nitrogenous wastes.
the kidney is referred to as an excretory organ and excretes urea, which is a less toxic form of uric acid.
Embryos do not excrete nitrogenous wastes into the environment but rather rely on the mother's body to remove these wastes through the placenta. The mother's kidneys process the nitrogenous wastes from the embryo's blood and excrete them into her own bloodstream for elimination.
The urinary system excretes nitrogenous wastes. The lungs excrete carbon dioxide.
Excretion of nitrogenous wastes is critical because these wastes are toxic to the body if they accumulate. By excreting nitrogenous wastes, the body maintains a balance of these compounds, preventing toxic build-up that can lead to severe health issues and even death. Proper excretion also helps regulate fluid and electrolyte balance in the body.
nitrogenous wastes
Common nitrogenous wastes in urine are: urea, uric acid and ammonia.
Urea is the less toxic in nature among the nitrogenous wastes where as Ammonia is 100,000 times toxic than urea.
Vertebrates have the same waste-disposal problems as invertebrates. They must deal with the very toxic ammonia their bodies produce, and most vertebrates must expel wastes while conserving water.
Your kidneys filer your blood of nitrogenous wastes. These wastes are then moved to the bladder in the form of urine and expelled.
Kidneys filter nitrogenous waste from the blood.
