  2. Crop in grasshopper - Temporary storage of food

  3. Blood of grasshopper - Haemolymph

  4. Egetion - Removal of undigested food from the body.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Hepatic caecum is found in grasshopper, which secretes enzymes into the stomach here they assist in the digestive process.
The food in the grasshopper, after entering into oesophagus, enters into the crop. here, the masticated food is temporary stored.
The hemolymph is equivalent to blood of grasshopper
Egestion is the process of discharging undigested or waste material from a cell of organ.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.

In the substrate eaters like Balanoglossus, the excretory organ is glomerulus or proboscis gland lying in front of the central sinus and projecting into the proboscis coelom.

Consider the following statements and choose the correct option.
A. Flame cells are excretory structures in flatworms. 
B. Green gland are excretory organs in annelids. 
C. Columns of Bertini are the conical projections of renal pelvis into renal medulla between the renal pyramids.

  1. A and B are correct

  2. B and C are incorrect

  3. A and C are correct

  4. A, B and C are correct

  5.  A, B and C are incorrect


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Green glands are excretory organs in crustaceans. The excretory organ in annelids is nephridia. The column of bertini is an extension of renal cortex between the renal pyramids.

Many freshwater animals cannot live for long in sea water and nice versa mainly because of the

  1. Change in N levels

  2. Change in the levels of thermal tolerance

  3. Variations in light intensity

  4. Osmotic problems

  5. Spectral quality of solar radiation


Correct Option: D

In adult Frog, the kidney is

  1. Pronephros

  2. Opisthonephros

  3. Mesonephros

  4. Metanephros


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The metanephric kidneys are a paired compact organ whose functional units are nephrons. The nephrons filter initial urine from the blood, reabsorbing water and nutrients, and secrete wastes, producing the final urine, which is expelled. In adult Frog, The kidney is Metanephros.

So, the correct answer is 'Metanephros'.

Flame cells are excretory organs of

  1. Prawn

  2. Planaria

  3. Silver fish

  4. Hydra


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Planarians are one of the types of flatworms belonging to the class Turbellaria. The excretory organs of planarians are flame cells. The flame cells work like a kidney and remove excretory wastes from the body.

So, the correct answer is 'Planaria'.

Sea Gulls excrete salts through

  1. Liver

  2. Lungs

  3. Urine

  4. Nasal gland


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Sea gulls are marine birds belonging to the family Laridae. They drink salt water as a result to maintain their osmotic balance they excrete salts through nasal gland or salt gland present in the nostrils and assist kidney in maintaining electrolyte balance.

So, the correct answer is 'Nasal gland'.

In Amoeba, $NH _3$ is excreted through

  1. Food vacuole

  2. Plasma membrane

  3. Contractile vacuole

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Amoeba is a fresh water unicellular organism. In amoeba the excretory waste is ammonia. The excretory waste present in the cytoplasm is collected by contractile vacuole then this excretory waste i.e NH$ _3$ is excreted through plasma membrane by diffusion.

So, the correct answer is 'Plasma membrane'.

In Hydra, wastes of food digestion and nitrogenous wastes are removed from

  1. Mouth and mouth

  2. Mouth and tentacles

  3. Body wall and body wall

  4. Mouth and body wall


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Hydra is a freshwater sessile organism belonging to the phylum Cnidaria and class Hydrozoa. They are found in lakes, pond, and stream. Hydra is ammonotelic i.e they secrete ammonia as chief excretory nitrogenous waste. In hydra specialized excretory organs are absent hence in hydra, wastes of food digestion and nitrogenous wastes are removed from mouth and body wall.

So, the correct answer is 'Mouth and body wall'.
