Solution
The correct option is B Ammonia in tadpole and urea in adult frog
Tadpole-Ammonotelic
Tadpoles. the larval form of frogs, are ammonotelic as they excrete nitrogenous wastes in the form of ammonia.Ammonia being the most toic form of nitrogenous waste requires lot of water for excretion. Tadpoles thrive in aquatic environment and execute ammonotelism.
Frog - Ureotelic
Nitrogenous wastes in frogs is excreted out in the form of urea. a comparatively lesser toxic form than ammonia. Hence, they can thrive in both aquatic and terrestrial environments.
Final answer
(B) Ammonia in tadpole and urea in adult frog
