ANSWER:

Salt glands allow desert animals to reduce water loss because of Urination.

Step-by-step explanation:

The salt gland secretes various ions that help the desert animals to excrete excess salt present in the water they consume. This gland produces hyperosmotic fluid that helps in secretion of sodium chloride ions.

So salt-containing water excretes out in the form of urination and the remaining water returns to the blood fluid. Thus water loss through urination is reduced.
