The distal blind end of the malpighian tubules bathes freely in____________?
Correct answer: C. Haemocoel
- A. Digestive tract
- B. Intestines
- C. Haemocoel
- D. Coelom
Explanation
Malpighian tubules are blind-ended tubes whose closed ends lie in the haemocoel, bathing in haemolymph and absorbing nitrogenous wastes from it. The likely distractor is the intestine, because the tubules empty into the gut, but their blind ends are surrounded by haemolymph in the haemocoel.
