AI Generated Solution
The correct Answer is:
To determine which statements are correct, we will analyze each statement one by one.
### Step-by-Step Solution:
1. **Statement A**: "Mammals, amphibia, freshwater fishes are ureotelic."
- **Analysis**: This statement is correct. Ureotelic organisms excrete urea as their primary nitrogenous waste. Mammals, amphibians, and freshwater fishes fall into this category.
- **Conclusion**: True
2. **Statement B**: "Waste product of bird and insect is same."
- **Analysis**: This statement is also correct. Both birds and insects primarily excrete uric acid as their nitrogenous waste, which is less toxic and conserves water.
- **Conclusion**: True
3. **Statement C**: "Fish eliminate ammonia through gill surfaces as `NH4+`."
- **Analysis**: This statement is correct. Many bony fishes excrete ammonia directly into the water through their gills, often in the form of ammonium ions (NH4+).
- **Conclusion**: True
4. **Statement D**: "Uric acid is most toxic form and requires large amount of water for its elimination."
- **Analysis**: This statement is incorrect. Uric acid is actually less toxic than ammonia and requires less water for its elimination. Ammonia is the most toxic nitrogenous waste and requires a large amount of water to be safely excreted.
- **Conclusion**: False
5. **Statement E**: "Excretory structures of most insects are malpighian tubules."
- **Analysis**: This statement is correct. Most insects do have Malpighian tubules, which are responsible for excreting nitrogenous wastes.
- **Conclusion**: True
### Final Summary of Correct Statements:
The correct statements are A, B, C, and E.

Nitrogen forms the largest number of oxides as it is capable of forming stable multiple bonds with oxygen. They range of N_(2)O (O.S of nitrogen +1) through NO, N_(2)O_(3),NO_(2),N_(2)O_(4) "to" N_(2)O_(5) (O.S of nitrogen +5). Following points are improtant regarding the study of oxides of nitrogen. (a) All oxides of nitrogen expect N_(2)O_(5) are endothermic as a large amount of energy is required to dissociate the stable molecule of oxygen and nitrogen. (b) The small electronegativity difference between oxygen and nitrogen make N-O bond easily breakle to give oxygen and hence oxides of nitrogen are said to be better oxidising agents. (c) Expect N_(2)O_(5) , all are gases at ordinary temperature. N_(2)O_(3) is stable only at lower temperature (253K). (d) Expect N_(2)O and NO which are neutal oxides, all are acidic oxides which dissolve in water forming coresponding oxy acids.
