Answer: urea disposal

Explanation:

<u>The liver, which is the largest organ in the human body, performs three vital functions of the organism: detoxification, synthesis and storage. </u>

The liver acts as an authentic filter that collects and eliminates numerous toxins, such as ammonia, or toxins that we ingest, such as alcohol (it performs a biotransformation of toxins). Our liver is also responsible for the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins, secreting bile, an essential element for the digestion. It also prevents bleeding through a coagulation process. And it is a container of vitamins (A, D, E, K) and glycogen (carbohydrates), while energy is stored in the form of sugar, made available to our organization.

The urea cycle takes place primarily in the liver. Organisms convert ammonia to a less toxic substance, such as urea, via the urea cycle. <u>Then it is released into the bloodstream where it travels to the kidneys and is ultimately excreted in urine. </u>

So, the liver is involved in the production of urea, but the kidney is responsible of its disposal.

Birds and mammals have a four-chambered heart, but most reptiles have a three-chambered heart. How does this fact affect the con
eduard

Answer:

The animals present body structure is due to evolution. It is seen in each part including the structure of the heart. The vertebrate heart becomes complex from a simpler form.  

Invertebrates, the heart of fishes is two-chambered having one auricle and one ventricle. The deoxygenated blood gets purified in the gills. They are aquatic and no lungs for breathing. The hearts pump a mixture of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood to the body.  

The amphibians and reptiles have 3 chambered heart as they lead terrestrial mode of life. The gills modified into the lungs.  The left auricle receives pure blood and the right auricle receives deoxygenated blood. The blood purified in the lungs and in the ventricle, both types of blood get a mix. The ventricle pumps the mixed-blood throughout the body.

In the case of birds and mammal, the heart is 4 chambered and the oxygenated and deoxygenated blood are separated. These two are higher vertebrates. No mix of pure and impure blood, the body receives only the oxygenated blood.

This shows to construct the phylogenetic tree of vertebrates - the fishes should be in the bottom, and above it amphibians, reptiles, then, mammals and birds on the top branch of the tree. As the chambers and structure of the hearts modified one after another.
