Answer:

The kidneys control the amount of water, ions, and other substances in the blood by excreting more or less of them in urine. The kidneys also secrete hormones that help maintain homeostasis.

Answer:

1.Osmoregulation

2.Thermoregulation

Explanation:

1.Osmoregulation is the maintenance of constant amount of water in the body of an organism.The kidney is responsible for this phenomenon as in it has a nephron in which at a particular part of the nephron,i.e the conducting tube which sites a hormone called the anti diuretic hormone which makes the walls of the conducting tube permeable to allow the movement of water from the urea back into the body before it is transferred into the bladder for to be released into the external environment.

2.Thermoregulation involves the maintenance of heat in the body of an organism.The skin is responsible for this process.It has hairs which lie on the surface of the skin to loose heat to the external environment during the hot days and also stands on the surface of the skin which trap a film of air on the skin surface to prevent heat loss in the cold days.

I HOPE IT'S OK?

Where do duplicated chromosomes line up during metaphase?
Mekhanik [1.2K]
During metaphase, the cell's chromosomes align themselves in the middle of the cell through a type of cellular "tug of war." The chromosomes, which have been replicated and remain joined at a central point called the centromere, are called sister chromatids.

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

A sea breeze or onshore breeze is any wind that blows from a large body of water toward or onto a landmass; it develops due to differences in air pressure created by the differing heat capacities of water and dry land. As such, sea breezes are more localised than prevailing winds. Because land absorbs solar radiation far more quickly than water, a sea breeze is a common occurrence along coasts after sunrise. By contrast, a land breeze or offshore breeze is the reverse effect: dry land also cools more quickly than water and, after sunset, a sea breeze dissipates and the wind instead flows from the land towards the sea. Sea breezes and land breezes are both important factors in coastal regions' prevailing winds.[1] The term offshore wind may refer to any wind over open water.

Wind farms are often situated near a coast to take advantage of the normal daily fluctuations of wind speed resulting from sea or land breezes. While many onshore wind farms and offshore wind farms do not rely on these winds, a nearshore wind farm is a type of offshore wind farm located on shallow coastal waters to take advantage of both sea and land breezes. (For practical reasons, other offshore wind farms are situated further out to sea and rely on prevailing winds rather than sea breezes.)
