Compared to freshwater fishes, marine fishes: drink seawater and produce a large volume of urine. do not drink seawater in an ef
fort to conserve as much water as possible. produce a large volume of dilute urine in an effort to rid their bodies of excess water. tend to gain water by osmosis since their internal salt concentration is higher than that of seawater. tend to lose water by osmosis since their internal salt concentration is lower than that of seawater.
The correct answer is - tend to lose water by osmosis since their internal salt concentration is lower than that of seawater.
Explanation:
In freshwater fishes, the body of fishes has a higher salt concentration inside their body than the surrounding water, water enters through the osmosis process. Without any active regulation of this process, fishes would swell and get bigger and bigger. They have specialized cells called chloride cells in gills to take ions from water as they do not have kidneys.
In contrast, the marine fishes have a lower salt concentration in their body than surrounding water of sea or ocean and they lose water continuously and to compensate for this they need to drink water regularly.
white is recessive since 2 fs were needed to get white so if half the children are white then the second parent has to have the recessive gene f and since the other half kids are purple then they need the G gene which is purple and is the dominant gene
