Correct answer: C). Their kidneys can't excrete concentrated salt.  

They do not possess the mechanism to excrete high salt content, their kidney is not designed in such a way that allows the excretion of high salt concentration. So if they drink sea water then high salt concentration retain in their body, which will cause osmotic imbalance and eventually they will die.

Hence, the correct answer would be option C.

Which organs perform both mechanical digestion and chemical digestion of food?
kotykmax [81]

Answer: Mouth.

Explanation:  

The mouth is known to be performing both the tasks of chemical digestion and mechanical digestion.

The food is ingested through mouth and the teeth perform the process of mechanical digestion by breaking down the food particles into smaller particles.

Then the saliva gets mixed into the food and the enzymes(amylase) present in the saliva helps in the digestion of carbohydrates.

So, mouth is the organ that performs the process of both mechanical and chemical digestion.
