Question

What is meant by osmoregulation?

Open in App
Solution

Osmoregulation is the process of maintaining salt and water balance across membranes within the body.
During summer, we urinate fewer times than in winter and the urine passed is usually more concentrated. The reason is that in summers, we lose much water through sweat. This is how body regulates osmoregulation.
