Compare the water budgets of the tenebrionid beetle, Onymacris, and the kangaroo rat, Dipodomys, shown in figures 6.9 and 6.10. Which of these two species obtains most of its water from metabolic water Which relies most on condensation of fog as a water source In which species do you see greater losses of water through the urine
