Answer: The desert animals do not get appreciable amount of water quantity to survive on daily basis instead their body mechanism tries to conserve water by concentrating urine.
Explanation:
The desert mammal like kangaroo rat produces hyper concentrated urine so as to conserve water. It is facilitated by extremely long loop of Henle in their nephron. The long loop of Henle increases the time and space for absorption of water and nutrients from the urine filtrate. Hence, urine so produced is more concentrate and conserve water. Moreover, the kangaroo rat consume their urine to survive in extreme hot desert condition in scarcity of water.

The two cells of the similar shape, and size have different levels of the ongoing metabolic activity. On one hand, the cell a is metabolically quiet, which means that no energy consuming chemical reactions are taking place in this cell. On the other hand, the cell b is actively consuming the surrounding oxygen. In this scenario, the oxygen will more quickly diffuse into the cell b because the diffusion gradient for oxygen in this cell is steeper than in the cell a.
Hence, the blanks can be filled with 'b and the diffusion gradient is steeper' respectively.
