Answer:

The correct answer is: D) The kidneys are paired organs that regulate water and electrolyte balance in terrestrial vertebrates.

Explanation:

The kidneys are the organs that control, for example, <u>the volume of body fluid compartments, acid-base balance, and electrolyte concentrations. </u>These organs are also key to <u>eliminate the toxins from the body. </u>

The kidneys are always two (when not is because of a pathology or the surgical removal of one of the two) and are present in vertebrates.

The kidneys <u>do not regulate blood glucose</u>. That is the job of the pancreas through two hormones called insulin and glucagon.

The kidneys <u>do not remove nitrogenous wastes</u> (urea) from the urine, instead they filtrate these wastes from the blood for these to be excreted through urine.

You decide to halve the time you spend in the shower each day and to turn off the water while you’re brushing your teeth and was
suter [353]

Answer:

Decreasing the consumption of water helps to maintain the fresh waters of our planet, the less we consume the less quickly they will end.

If we abuse fresh water, one day the planet will end and the salt water from the seas will have to be filtered, which is much more expensive and more polluting.

Explanation:

In addition, we must bear in mind that the less we use the water, the less we will contaminate it with chemicals such as shampoos, rinse creams, soap, therefore less water will end up in the non-recyclable water cycle.

All the water we use will end up being polluted and will not enter the natural cycle of water from river rainfall, irrigation and evaporation in the skies.
