Vedclass · Answer

(B) Salt-excreting glands,also known as salt glands,are specialized organs found in many marine vertebrates that help maintain osmotic balance by excreting excess salt from the body.These glands are particularly well-developed in marine reptiles and birds that consume seawater or prey with high salt content.Marine iguanas $(Amblyrhynchus cristatus)$ and sea turtles (such as the green sea turtle) possess these glands to eliminate the high salt load ingested from their marine diet.Therefore,the correct option is $B$.
