Which outcome occurs when amphibians transition to terrestrial environments?

💡 Explanation

Increased secretion of uric acid happens, because amphibians transition to conserve water using the osmoregulation mechanism, which synthesizes less toxic wastes requiring minimal water for excretion. Therefore, uric acid concentration increases, rather than urea; this adaptation minimizes water loss more effectively.
