Nutrients the body needs ( glucose, amino acids, and other small molecules ), electrolytes ( sodium, potassium ), and water are reabsorbed into the blood at the kidney. Sodium, Potassium, and other electrolytes are monitored and reabsorbed as well.

Urine
If metabolic wastes are not removed from the organism?
The organism will be poisoned. --------------------------------------- True, for instance someone with renal (kidney) failure will die without dialysis or a kidney transplant - (the kidneys remove metabolic waste from the blood).
How are kidneys and sweat glands alike?
They all part of the excretory system. Kidney is well known organ of excretion. The volatile substances are excreted by lungs. Sweat glands also excretes few substances. (Like heavy metals, probably.)
What substances are filtered by nephrons then excreted?
calcutoodopassimmer reflecterpaist

excess water and other water soluble substances ......
What waste substances are excreted in your skin?

When drugs are absorbed through the small intestine do they pass through THE kidney?

The blood transports nutrients to all organs of the body. Waste products are filtered out of the blood by the kidney and excreted in urine.
What is the function of the glomerulus and the bowmans capsule?
The glomerulus and bowmans capsule are part of the excretory system, and they are found in the nephron of a kidney. The function of the glomerulus and the bowman's capsule is to filter the substances in the blood. The glomerulus is a tangle of capillaries which have little slits in them. Water, salts, glucose and urea pass through the slits into the bowmans capsule, which leads to kidney tubules. Then, as the kidney tubules are surrounded by capillaries, the useful substances (all glucose, some salts, most water) are re-absorbed, and only urea and some salts carry on to be excreted.
How are gills and lungs are alike?
They all part of the excretory system. Kidney is well known organ of excretion. The volatile substances are excreted by lungs. Sweat glands also excretes few substances. (Like heavy metals, probably.)
Where is urine excreted in the kidney?
excretion of urine does not occur in kidneys. Urea and wastes and urine are filtered in the renal corpuscle of the nephron tubule in the kidney. The wastes that are secreted into the tubules and not reabsorbed travel down tubules to urethra and excreted outside of body by urination.
