Understanding Excreters: How Your Body Removes Waste Products
An excreter is an organ or gland that secretes or eliminates waste products from the body. Examples of excreters include the kidneys, liver, lungs, and skin. These organs work together to remove waste products and maintain homeostasis in the body.
The kidneys are responsible for filtering waste products from the blood and regulating electrolyte levels. The liver helps to detoxify harmful substances and metabolize nutrients. The lungs remove carbon dioxide from the blood and exchange it for oxygen. The skin helps to eliminate waste products through sweat and eliminates bacteria and other foreign particles through the immune system.
All of these excreters work together to maintain a healthy balance in the body and prevent the accumulation of toxic substances.
