<h2>a) option is correct </h2>

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the way animals maintain a stable internal  balance in their body and allows animals to function in the changing  external conditions surrounding their body

The high salt concentration in the ocean means that salt will be constantly diffusing into  the body of some animals

Water and salts can move  through the gill membrane to maintain the balance

The kidneys are used to remove excess salts through their urine, which is quite  concentrated

The concentrated urine is also due to the increase in a hormone (ADH) which  causes more water to be reabsorbed by the kidneys
