Removal of waste from the body is called excretion. It may be in the form of gas, liquid and solid.
The organs of excretion are:
Skin subserves the function of excretion as the sweat gland(sudorifc gland) excretes salt and urea in the form of perspiration.
Lungs help in the removal of carbon dioxide.
Liver, among other functions, destroys old RBC and degrades the protopohyrin of the heme to produce bile pigments which are released in the duodenum to be passed out through the feces.
Kidney filters the blood and removes urea, salt, water etc.
Large intestine absorbs water and leaves behind the solid waste of digested food as fecal matter.
