What is osmoregulation? Name the organs of
osmoregulation in
(i) Human (ii) Amoeba
Answers
Answer:
Osmoregulation is the process of maintaining salt and water balance ( osmotic balance ) across membranes within the body
The kidneys are the main osmoregulatory organs in Human body
osmoregulatory organs in Amoeba is contractile vacuole
hope it helps...
Answer:
Vacuoles are the organs which are known for osmoregulation. It maintains the level of salt and water inside a cell. If the concentration of the salt is more inside the body the water is absorbed while if the extra water is released if salt concentration is less than the surrounding environment.

osmoregulation occurs in amoeba an paramecium through:
1. Food vacuole
2. Mitochondria
3. Nucleus
4. contractile vacuole
Humans. Kidneys play a very large role in human osmoregulation by regulating the amount of water reabsorbed from glomerular filtrate in kidney tubules, which is controlled by hormones such as antidiuretic hormone (ADH), aldosterone, and angiotensin II.
