<span>The answer would be:
reduces water loss compared to other nitrogenous wastes, but requires more metabolic energy to produce

Nitrogen waste needs to be removed out of the body. There are a few ways to remove the nitrogen waste but it will vary in the amount of energy used. 
Uric acid is less soluble which makes it won't be secreted in urine, thus reducing the need to urinate and reduce water loss. But the production of uric acid need hydrolysis of ATP, so it needs more energy.
Fish will secrete the waste as ammonia which soluble in water but doesn't need ATP to synthesize.</span>

DNA _____.
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Answer:

The correct answer would be "contains coded information for the creation of proteins".

DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a polymer of nucleotides.

It is the genetic material in most of the living cells present on earth. That is, it controls all the characters and traits of the living organisms.

In prokaryotes, it keeps floating in the cytoplasm whereas it is confined in the well-defined nucleus in eukaryotic cells.

The nucleotide sequence of the DNA is used as the code for the synthesis of the proteins.

It is first transcribed into the nucleotide sequence of mRNA which is further decoded into the amino acid sequence of the proteins.
