Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
| Assertion (A): | Many amphibians excrete mainly ammonia when they are aquatic tadpoles and switch largely to urea excretion when they become land dwelling adults. |
| Reason (R): | The main disadvantage of urea is its energy cost and the main advantage is its low toxicity. |
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
Assertion: Endotherms produce more nitrogenous wastes than ectotherms.
Reason: All endotherms are predators and derive more energy from protein.

| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
Assertion: In the freshwater flatworms, protonephridia serve chiefly in osmoregulation rather than in excretion.
Reason: Most metabolic wastes in freshwater flatworms diffuse out of the animal across the body surface or are eliminated into the gastrovascular cavity.
