Nitrogenous wastes can become extremely toxic and have deleterious effects on tissue need to be excreted. Passive processes (concentration gradients set up to maintain homeostasis) Fxns of gills: gas exchange, filter-feeding, excretion of h2o and ions. Atp has to be used to create gradient and hormones decide whether or not gradient is in play: gradients=created bc we need fluids to move (ex: need to get rid of excess solutes) Ammonia: usually in fish-have a lot of available h2o to excrete. Everything is filtered based on size (if small enough to be filtered, will be filtered) Osmoregulatory systems: some sort of tubule structure (filtration, excretion) draped in.
