How is osmoregulation related to homeostasis?
Osmoregulation is a necessary funtion in order for an organism to regulate the quantity of fluid within its tissues/cells. Without Osmoregulation an organism's fluids may become too concentrated, or too diluted, to carry out normal life functions.
Is the urinary system responsible for osmoregulation?
Yes it is since when one excretes, the kidney releases excess water from the excretory system hence osmoregulation takes place.
What geological period has the oldest terrestrial insect fossils found in rocks?
The oldest terrestrial insect fossils are found in rocks dating back to the Devonian Period, approximately 400 million years ago. These fossils provide insight into the early evolution and diversification of insects on land.
Where does osmoregulation occur?
Osmoregulation occurs primarily in the kidneys in most animals. It involves the regulation of water and solute concentrations in the body to maintain internal balance. Additionally, osmoregulation can also occur in other organs such as the gills in fish and the Malpighian tubules in insects.
Is venus jovian or terrestrial?

What do speckled frogs eat?
They eat small terrestrial invertebrates, mainly insects
Are dragonflies aquatic insects?

What are the Structures that absorb fluid from blood in the body sinuses of insects?
Malphigian tubules are the structures in insects that absorb fluid from the blood in the body sinuses. These tubules are part of the excretory system of insects and are responsible for removing waste and excess solutes from the hemolymph.

What is a terrestrial organism?
A terrestrial organism is an organism that lives primarily on land, as opposed to in water or in the air. These organisms have evolved to survive and thrive in terrestrial environments. Examples include plants, animals, and insects that are adapted to life on land.
What eats poisonous frogs?
It eats small terrestrial invertebrates. Mostly insects like small beetles and other small prey. Also they eat small new born crickets. Mainly small insects.
What organ is used by humans for osmoregulation?
Kidneys.
What is the technical name for regulating water in your body?
It is - OSMOREGULATION
