Answer:

Kidneys

Step-by-step explanation:

These organs excrete excess water and salts in the blood and also conserves them when they are in low concentrations. The rate of reabsorption is controlled by ADH (Anti-diuretic hormone/vasopressin) and ACTH (that triggers the release of aldosterone by adrenal glands) that are produced by the pituitary gland.
