osmoregulation_saltwater
Salts excreted/uptake via chloride cells in gills (Na follows). Shark tissue high in urea.
osmoregulation_freshwater
Would you drink lake water?
malpighian
No filtration; reabsorption if of solutes, followed by water - should be NO URINE.
Hemocytes: immune system; insect blood does not carry oxygen (tracheae); open c.s.

Kidney Function
nephron_urine
REVU:
HCO33-=bicarbonate; nutrients=glucose, amino acids.
Medulla is hypertonic; tip of Henle (thin segment) has ion but not water channels, NaCl concentrated.
1.
H+ and ammonia (
NH3) may be
secreted to maintain pH.
4.
reabsorption of bicarbonate (
HCO33-) - IN STEP 2 of
44&B?
ADH
High salt also causes thirst - drink.
Diuretic=increase urination if kidney disease or alcohol/caffeine (prevent ADH release): dehydration.

- Salt uptake in gills: chloride cells actively transport Cl-; Na+ follows.
- Tardigrades: a decade or more, 8 legs.
- Hemolymph: bloodlike fluid in hemocoelom open circulatory systems; combines properties of blood and lymph.
- Urea: converted from ammonia in liver of mammals and most adult amphibians, excreted in kidneys.
- Uric acid excreted in feces (guano) - not bats
- Excretory Systems: tubules
- Urinary bladder: .5 liter; female bladder
is smaller, possible pregnancy.
- Secrete hydrogen ion H+: more acidic
- alcohol, diabetes insipidus: decrease ADH
