Is the skin part of the urinary system?

Answer 1

First off, let's define the word "excretory"

Excretion is the process of eliminating waste products of metabolism and other non-useful materials. It is an essential process in all forms of life. It contrasts secretion, where the substance may have specific tasks after leaving the cell

With that being said:

When you get hot, you sweat, sweat is an excretion - primarily made up of uric acid. Your skin, when you sweat is being cleansed at the same time as keeping you cool.

The sweat glands function as the excretory organs of the skin.

We sweat through our skins. The liquid that we release through the pours of our skin contains many toxins that are harmful to our body. This release of liquid is called excretion.

Yes it remves toxins from your body to mantain homeostasis by sweating which uses the endocrine and integumentary system.
