Chapter 44: Osmoregulation and Excretion

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.
excretory_system 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.

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