Question

Why is it that fowl do not urinate? 

Answer 1

Fowls covert Nitrogen into Uric acid which doesn't not need as much dilution as urea(excretory product of mammals). This combined with the fact that they don't have a urethra and neither a seperate opening for urine to exit. This, the Uric acid is excreted put along with faeces through anus.

This is, most probably to save water consumption and reduce unnecessary weight as they have to fly.

Answer 2

This is because fowls do not have a urinary bladder like mammals. Instead they have an excretory system that combines waste products from the digestive system and the kidney.

Answer 3

Fowl or birds do not have a separate urinary system like mammals, which is why they do not urinate. Instead, their kidneys filter waste products from their blood, which are then mixed with digestive waste and eliminated as solid excrement through their cloaca. This mechanism helps birds conserve water as they do not need to eliminate excess water in their liquid form. As fowl are adapted to their environment, their unique excretion system has evolved to suit their needs and make them efficient in their natural habitats.

Answer 4

Fowls does not urinate because they excrete nitrogenous waste in the form of Uric acid, which is combined with feces and excreted together from the cloaca, a common opening for feces, urine and eggs in birds

Answer 5

Birds do not urinate in the same way that mammals do because they lack a bladder and urethra. 

Instead, they excrete urine in the form of solid uric acid along with their feces. Uric acid emerges as a white paste and does not dissolve in water easily. 

Birds flush waste away from their bodies using a system of tubes called the uropygial gland.

Answer 6

all poultry have a combined waste called excreta that is feces and urine combined in the large intestine. Chickens do not have a bladder, so urine from the kidneys moves into the cloaca and by the act of reverse peristalsis is transferred into the large intestine.

Answer 7

Fowl, like other birds, do not have a urinary bladder like mammals. Instead, they eliminate both their nitrogenous waste, such as uric acid, along with their feces in the form of a white, pasty material called "urine or urate." This is because birds have evolved to conserve water and excrete waste in a more concentrated form, as they have a high metabolic rate and a small body size in comparison to mammals. In addition, the uric acid is excreted with minimal water loss, which makes it easier for birds to maintain their fluid balance and conserve water in their arid habitats. So, fowl do not urinate because they excrete all of their waste, including uric acid, in their feces.

Answer 8

Fowl do not urinate because they have a unique digestive system that allows them to use their kidneys to filter out water and other waste products from their food. The waste products are then excreted as a semisolid material known as uric acid, which is passed out of the body through the cloaca.

Answer 9

Fowls covert Nitrogen into Uric acid which doesn't not need as much dilution as urea(excretory product of mammals). This combined with the fact that they don't have a urethra and neither a seperate opening for urine to exit. This, the Uric acid is excreted put along with faeces through anus.t
