Lesson:EXCRETION
The ExcretorySystems
Excretion is the process of removing metabolic wastes.
What does the excretory system do?
State Body Systems involved in excretion
Main Organ of excretion
Waste product
The Large Intestine Not all foods are digested and absorbed
by our body. The undigested food is passed into the
large intestine for temporary storage. The undigested food contains a large
amount of water and dissolved minerals like iron, calcium, and magnesium.
Some of the water and the dissolved minerals are absorbed by the walls of the large intestine and returned to our body through blood circulation.
The remaining solid waste after absorption is called feces.
Feces contains bacteria, undigested food, bile, and the remaining water and minerals.
It is discharged by the large intestine through the rectum. It then leaves our body through the anus.

The Lungs
The lungs are not only organs of respiration but also organs of excretion.
The lungs give off 1. carbon dioxide2. water vapor as waste products.
These are picked up by the blood from the cells and brought to the lungs. Then, the lungs give them off as we exhale or breathe out.

The Skin removes metabolic wastes. These metabolic wastes move out of the blood vessels through the capillaries into the sweat glands. The skin excretes the
following:1. water2. urea 3. salt
Excretion by Integumentary System (Skin)
Excretion by Integumentary System (Skin) Each sweat gland has
a sweat tube that leads to a small opening in the skin’s
surface called pore. This is where water
and salt pass out of the skin.
These wastes are collectively called
sweat or
perspiration.

Water helps to remove the dangerous toxins that our body takes in from the air, the food and the chemicals we use on our skin and hair.
Water also provides cushion for our body joints.
Water carries oxygen and nutrients into all our cells.
Water also helps to regulate our body temperature.
Importance of Water in Human Body
When we say “integrative”, this means that our body systems are interconnected to each other to maintain homeostasis.
Our body has integrative body systems.
Our body is so sensitive to everything we take in our body and to environment outside where we live in. And because of its sensitivity, we need other body system to perform other major liquid excretion aside from excretion by our skin.
Word origin: from the Greek: homeo, meaning unchanging + stasis, meaning standing.
Human homeostasis refers to the body's ability to physiologically regulate its inner environment to ensure its stability in response to fluctuations in the outside environment and the weather.
it is the state of balance in our body.
What is human homeostasis?
Homeostatic imbalance will lead to diseases or even death.
What will happen if you do not have the ability to maintain homeostasis in our body?
The blood, which carries waste materials and other substances, enters the kidneys through the renal artery.
as blood surges through the kidneys, a filtering unit called nephrons filters the blood with nitrogenous waste urea, uric acid, salts and other metabolic wastes.
NephronsExcess salts, water,
wastes remain in the tubule and become urine
Urine enters collecting ducts (tubes) in the medulla
Collecting tubes empty into the renal pelvis (first section of the ureter)
All the blood in the body passes through the kidneys about 20 times every hour.
What is Uric Acid?Uric acid is a chemical created when the
body breaks down substances called purines.Purines are found in some foods and drinks,
such as liver, anchovies (oil fishes), mackerel, dried beans and peas, beer, and wine.
The substances that are useful to the body are brought back into circulation. Together with the clean blood, they leave the kidneys through the renal veins to the inferior vena cava and to the different parts of the body.
The urine leaves the kidneys through the ureters, a muscular tubes 10-12 inches long that moves urine from the kidney to the urinary bladder.
The urinary bladder (a hollow sac organ) that temporarily stores the urine that passes from the two ureters. The urethra finally carries urine from bladder to outside of the body.

Summary
The state of balance in our body is called? Human homeostasis.The urinary system consists of the ? kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder and
urethra. Kidneys are ? bean-shaped organ that contains filtering units
called nephrons. The ureters are ? muscular tubes 10-12 inches long that moves
urine from the kidney to the urinary bladder.Urinary bladder ? temporarily store the urine that pass from the
two ureters.Urethra ? is a tube that carries urine from bladder to
outside of the body.

CAUTION
How many times do you urinate in one day?
Humans produce about 2.9 liters of urine over 24 hours.
What will happen if one of your kidney fail to function?
Dialysis, a treatment where a machine does the job of the kidneys to filter the blood.
used to provide an artificial replacement for lost kidney function .
(renal replacement therapy) due to renal failure.
What will happen if both of your kidneys failed to function?
Kidney transplantation means replacement of the failed kidneys with a working kidney from another person, called a donor.
Kidney transplantation is not a complete cure, although many people who receive a kidney transplant are able to live much as they did before their kidneys failed.

PreventionDo not delay
urination when it is necessary.
Drink 6-8 glasses of water every day.
Eat a healthy diet. Avoid eating salty foods.
Avoid drinking soft drinks and alcoholic drinks like beer and wine.

6. The Urinary bladder (a hollow sac organ) then temporarily stores the
urine that passes from the two ureters. The urethra finally carries
urine from bladder to outside of the body. 7. Excess salts, water, and wastes remains in the tubule and

are brought back into circulation. Together with the clean blood, they
leave the kidneys through the renal veins. 8. as blood surges through the kidneys, a filtering unit called

that branches off from the aorta through the renal arteries. 10. the urine leaves the kidneys through the ureters, a
