Your system is made up of several organs, but these organs do not necessarily all act in conjunction with each other as we said previously. These organs are similar in that they perform the composite function of waste removal. Here are the organs of the excretory system and their function. Skin The skin releases excess salt, water and urea from the blood in the form of sweat on its surface. Besides eliminating waste, the skin is also important for homeostasis because sweat helps maintain temperature. LungsThe lungs are considered part of the excretory system because the byproducts of respiration (water, carbon dioxide) are removed through the lungs. Urinary system: Note: When presenting, explain this concisely, as briefly discussed on the urinary system. The urinary system is only one component of the excretory system and serves to filter wastes from the blood and eject them through the urethra.KidneysThere are two kidneys in humans. body and these kidneys weigh approximately 140 to 160 grams and approach the size of a fist. Its shape is a...... middle of paper ...... the body. The urethra is found in a person's genitals. It also serves a function in the reproductive system, where it also ejects seminal fluid or sperm. Large intestine: The large intestine is the last part of the digestive system, but also a component of the excretory system. It absorbs the remaining water from the indigestible waste and also excretes the remaining waste in the form of stool through the anus. This process of expulsion is known as defecation. The excretory system is clearly an essential body system, as it removes various toxins from the body. Obviously, the absence of such a crucial system would portend a very inauspicious fate, due to the fact that there is no way to expel feces, nor the presence of pure blood. Additionally, the excretory system maintains a homeostatic function which is also important for the survival of the human body..
