How does waste get to the kidneys?

What is the function of erythropoietin in response to hypoxia?
Erythropoietin triggers more red blood cells to be produced in the bone marrow. Red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body, therefore if there are more red blood cells than more oxygen can be exchanged throughout the body decreasing lack of oxygen (hypoxia). So in hypoxia the kidneys produce and increased amount of erythropoietin.
Viruses are often carried to the host through the?
Viruses are often carried to the host through the air, bodily fluids, or contact with contaminated surfaces. They can enter the host's body through inhalation, ingestion, or direct contact with mucous membranes or broken skin. Once inside the body, viruses can replicate and cause infection.
