The excretory system is a passive biological system
that removes excess, unnecessary materials from
an organism and prevent damage to the body
The matter, such as urine or sweat, that is so
excreted
The act or process of discharging waste matter from the blood, tissues, or organs.
![Page 3: Excretory system grade 10 life sciences](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042816/55938e241a28abd04e8b457c/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
What the Excretory System does
The system removes metabolic waste fromthe body. One of the main parts of theExcretory System is the kidney. The wasteproducts arrive in the kidneys then thekidneys then start a process that removeshazardous toxins and products that the bodycan not use. The kidneys then mix the wasteproducts together to form a liquid calledurine. The urine then goes to the bladder andis kept there until it is released via the Uretha.

DIFFERENT ORGANS INVOLVED IN EXCRETORY SYSTEM:
Kidney Ureter
Urinary bladder renal vein
Urethra skin
urethral sphincter Dorsal aorta
vena cava adrenal glandrenal artery

KidneyThe kidney is a reddish brown, bean
shaped organ which is present in
each of the sides of the Vertebral
column .

Skin
The skin is another part of the
excretory system: it eliminates
sweat, that helps cool the body and
regulate the concentration of salt
![Page 8: Excretory system grade 10 life sciences](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042816/55938e241a28abd04e8b457c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Renal artery
normally arise off the side of
the abdominal aorta, immediately
below the superior mesenteric
artery, and supply the kidneys with
blood.
![Page 9: Excretory system grade 10 life sciences](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042816/55938e241a28abd04e8b457c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Adrenal gland
Are endocrine glands that sit at
the top of the kidneys the right
adrenal gland is triangular
shaped, while the left adrenal
gland is semi lunar shaped. They
are chiefly responsible for
releasing hormones in response
to stress
![Page 10: Excretory system grade 10 life sciences](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042816/55938e241a28abd04e8b457c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Renal veinThe renal veins are veins that drain the kidney. They connect the kidney
to the inferior vena cava. They carry
the blood purified by the kidney.
![Page 11: Excretory system grade 10 life sciences](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042816/55938e241a28abd04e8b457c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Vena cavavein is the vena cava that carries de-oxygenated blood from the
lower half of the body into the right
atrium of the heart.
![Page 12: Excretory system grade 10 life sciences](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042816/55938e241a28abd04e8b457c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
urethral sphincter
refers to one of two muscles used to
control the exit of urine in the urinary
bladder through the urethra.
![Page 13: Excretory system grade 10 life sciences](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042816/55938e241a28abd04e8b457c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
UreterAre muscular ducts that
propel urine from the kidneys
to the urinary bladder. In
humans, the ureters arise from
the renal pelvis on the medial
aspect of each kidney before
descending towards the bladder.
![Page 14: Excretory system grade 10 life sciences](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042816/55938e241a28abd04e8b457c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Urinary bladder
The urinary bladder is the organ that
collects urine excreted by the
kidneys prior to disposal
by urination. It is a hollow muscular
, and sits on the pelvic floor
![Page 15: Excretory system grade 10 life sciences](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042816/55938e241a28abd04e8b457c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Dorsal aorta
The dorsal aorta give branches to
the yolk-sac, and are continued
backward through the body-stalk as
the umbilical arteries to the villi of
the chorion.
![Page 16: Excretory system grade 10 life sciences](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042816/55938e241a28abd04e8b457c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Urethra
In anatomy is a tube which
connects the urinary bladder to the outside of the body.
![Page 17: Excretory system grade 10 life sciences](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042816/55938e241a28abd04e8b457c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Liver
Are produced as a result of break
down of hemoglobin in the worn out
red blood cells in the liver and
excreted with the bile into the
duodenum and removed along with
the feces .
![Page 18: Excretory system grade 10 life sciences](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042816/55938e241a28abd04e8b457c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
PROBLEMS
A problem that can happen in the Excretory system is Urinary
tract infection- This is usually due to a bacteria which can
cause burning during urination. It is usually treated with
antibiotics.
Kidney stones- These are small hard deposits that develop in
the kidneys. They can cause severe pain in the stomach and
back. Surgery may be required if they are to expand.
Cystitis is an infection in the bladder, due to bacteria.
Blood in the urine- is a sign of a problem usually due to an
urinary tract infection or kidney stones. Sometimes, it can be
due to a more serious problem such as cancer.

HOW TO LOOK AFTER YOUR
EXCRETORY SYSTEMS
Drink adequate amounts of water.
Exercise regularly.
Eat a nutritious diet consisting of
fruits, vegetables, grains, and nuts.
Stay away from drugs, alcohol and
tobacco

LARGE INTESTINE
The Large Intestine collects waste
from throughout the body.
It extracts any remaining (usable)
water and then removes waste.
![Page 22: Excretory system grade 10 life sciences](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042816/55938e241a28abd04e8b457c/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Urethritis is an inflammation of the urethra
caused by a bacterial or viral infection.
Symptoms of urethritis vary between sexes. A
symptom in men can be seen as blood in the
urine or semen or even a discharge containing
puss. In women, abdominal pain, pain during
urination and fever may occur.
Urethritis

Circulatory:
Blood that circulates through the body passes
through one of the two kidneys. Urea, uric acid, and water are removed from the blood and most of the water is put back into the system
Endocrine:
Monitors levels of compounds and fluids
Kidney function must be constantly altered to provide the best internal environment for your cells
If too much water is present, hormones are released that allow for more urine production. If the body is dehydrated, less urine will be produced
Adrenal gland position on the top of each kidney. Adrenals release adrenaline into your body
How it Works with Other Systems

WHICH IS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN
WATER AND EXCRETION?
Water is essential for digesting food. It is also important for getting rid of various toxic elements from the body, in the form of urine, sweat and faecal matter.
Water helps to cushion our joints and prevents shocks in them.
Water present in blood is the carrier of oxygen and nutrients to all our body cells.
