Excretory System
  1. What?
    1. Lungs- CO2
      1. Kidney- Urea
        1. Skin- urea
          1. Liver- bile salts
          2. Why?
            1. To expel wastes that have been made by cells as a by-product of metabolism. If waste accumulates then it becomes toxic
            2. How?
              1. Nitrogenous waste, water and other substances combine to make urine
                1. The greater the toxicity of the waste, the more water required to dilute it for excretion
                2. Where
                  1. Lungs- removes CO2 from blood
                    1. Kidney- removes urea from blood
                      1. Skin- removes quantities of urea from blood
                        1. Liver- removes pigment (haemoglobin) from warn out red blood cells
