A developing bird embryo stores nitrogenous waste primarily in the form of uric acid, which is accumulated in the allantois, a membrane that serves as a waste reservoir. This adaptation allows the embryo to conserve water while still effectively managing waste products. The allantois not only stores nitrogenous waste but also plays a role in gas exchange and nutrient transfer during development.
