Solution
The correct option is A True Osmoregulation is the process of maintenance of salt and water balance ( osmotic balance) across membranes within the body’s fluids, which are composed of water, plus electrolytes and non-electrolytes. Any decrease or increase in osmotic pressure with increase/decrease of water and salts in the body leads to specific mechanisms for their control i.e. osmoregulation.
