What advantage over an aquatic organism does a terrestrial organism have with obtaining oxygen.

Biology
1 answer:
ryzh [129]1 year ago
5 0

Compared to water, which has 1% dissolved oxygen, the air has around 21% more oxygen. This is a massive advantage for terrestrial organisms if compared with aquatic ones.

The vast difference in the percentage of dissolved oxygen present in the waters and air explains why terrestrial organisms benefit from receiving more oxygen than aquatic ones.

Aquatic species must use oxygen in the water, whereas terrestrial organisms get oxygen from the atmosphere. The high oxygen content of the air means terrestrial animals do not need to breathe more quickly to receive more oxygen. Terrestrial animals do not need to exhibit a variety of adaptations for improved gaseous exchange.

<h2>Urea </h2>

Explanation:

Urea is a small nitrogenous compound which is the main end product of protein catabolism in mammals

  • Urea is a nitrogen-containing substance normally cleared from the blood by the kidney into the urine
  • It is made predominantly in the liver from ammonia and bicarbonate and is one of the main components of urine
  • The rate of synthesis varies from 300 to 600 mmol/day depending on the protein intake
  • All of this urea eventually finds its way into the urine
  • Because urea makes up a large part of the obligatory solute excretion, its osmotic pressure requires significant volumes of water to carry the urea
  • Urea passively crosses biological membranes, but its permeability is low because of its low solubility in the lipid bilayer
  • Some cells speed up this process through urea transporters, which move urea by facilitated diffusion
  • Urea is passively reabsorbed in the proximal tubule, but its route of transport is not clear
  • Urea transporters have not yet been identified for the proximal tubule
