* Excretion is the mane given to the removal from the body of: (substances in bold): * ** The waste products of the body's chemical reactions, the products of some reactions are poisonous and must be removed from the body: ** *** Break down of glucose during respiration produces CO2, which is carried away by the blood and removed in the lungs. *** Deamination of excess glycogen in the liver to form glycogen and urea and uric acid. The urea and uric acid are removed from the tissues by the blood and expelled by the kidneys. *** Break down of hemoglobin produces bilirubin, which is excreted with the bile into the small intestine and expelled with the feces. (The changes it undergoes in the intestine are largely responsible for the brown color of the feces.) ** Excess water and salts taken in with the diet are removed as fast as they build up. ** Hormones produced by the endocrine glands affect the rate at which various body systems work. Used/Spent hormones are modified in the liver and excreted by the kidneys. ** Removal of drugs or other foreign substances taken into the alimentary canal and absorbed by the blood. * Nitrogenous waste products: uric acid and urea contain the element nitrogen
