One of the most extensive animal radiations is that of terrestrial arthropods (includes insects). They excrete uric acid as their form of nitrogenous waste

Why does this allow them to conserve more water than a mammal with extensive kidney tubules for water reabsorption? A. The high solubility of uric acid allows the excretory system to reabsorb water. B. Uric acid levels stay high in the blood maintaining a strong osmotic gradient, which allows water to be reabsorbed. C. After precipitation, uric acid no longer influences osmolarity; water returns to the hypertonic tissues. D. After precipitation, uric acid no longer influences osmolarity; water leaves the hypertonic tissues.
