Answer: b). By retaining body fluids.

Explanation:

An excretory system in animal body secretes excess water, salts, ions and nitrogenous wastes like ammonia from the body. It protects the body from waste aaccumulation.

If the animal is thirsty the excretory system will function to conserve the water in the body by reducing the secretion of bodily fluids like urine from the body. Unless dehydration will result which may lead to failure of organs and death.

The excretory system is most likely to respond when an animal is thirsty in this way: B. by retaining body fluids.
Because the body doesn't get enough fluids to not be thirsty anymore, it retains whatever fluids it already has in it until the thirst is satiated.

Chloramphenicol binds in the active site of the large ribosomal subunit and inhibits peptidyl transferase activity in the 23s rr

valentina_108 [34]

This inhibition is restricted to bacterial translation because; the peptidyl transferase is an enzyme aminoacyltransferase as well as the primary enzymatic function of the ribosome, which forms peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids using tRNAs during the process of translation. Therefore, inhibition of this enzyme means that the process oof translation wont take place, hence proteins will not be formed and thus the bacteria will die.
