In cockroach, excretion is brought about by: A. Phallic gland B. Urecose gland C. Nephrocytes D. Fat body E. Collaterial glands Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A and E only
A, B and E only
B, C and D only
B and D only
To solve this problem, we need to identify the structures responsible for excretion in cockroaches. Let's analyze each option:Phallic gland: This gland is involved in the reproductive system of male cockroaches and is not related to excretion.Urecose gland: This is not a recognized gland in cockroaches related to excretion.Nephrocytes: These are cells in cockroaches that help in the filtration and removal of waste products from the hemolymph, contributing to excretion.Fat body: This structure in cockroaches functions similarly to the liver in vertebrates, storing nutrients and detoxifying waste products, thus playing a role in excretion.
