Answer:
The elimination of nitrogenous waste materials through mainly kidney in ... Eg:‐ Insects, land snail, reptiles and birds. 1. ... Urea is less toxic than ammonia and more toxic than uric acid.
Answer
The removal of harmful metabolic or nitrogenous wastes such as ammonia (NH₃), urea and uric acid from the body is called excretion.
The process of excreting ammonia is called Ammonotelism.
Urea excreting animals are called ureotelic animals.
Uric acid excreting animals are called uricotelic.
» Conidaria
