Solution
The correct option is C Ammonotelic - Aquatic Amphibia
Ureotelic - Frog, Humans
Uricotelic - Pigeon, Lizards, Cockroach
Ammonotelic organisms are those which excrete nitrogenous waste as soluble ammonia. For example, most of the aquatic animals such as amphibians, poriferans, fishes, etc.Ureotelic organisms which excrete urea as nitrogenous waste. For example, include cartilaginous fishes, frogs, humans, adult amphibians, etc.
Uricotelic organisms are those which excrete nitrogenous waste as uric acid or its salts. For example, mostly include birds, lizard, cockroach, etc.So, the correct answer is 'Ammonotelic - Aquatic Amphibia, Ureotelic - Frog, Humans, Uricotelic - Pigeon, Lizards, Cockroach'.
