Question

Bony marine fish

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bony marine fish have salt-secreting glands that eliminate excess salt from their body. In order to maintain their salt balance, they also need to drink seawater to replenish the lost water. Therefore, they both drink seawater and secrete salt into the surrounding water. They are not hyperosmotic compared to the surrounding water, as they need to maintain a balance between their internal salt concentration and the surrounding environment.
