There are three principal organs of excretion. The kidneys excrete urine, which contains wastes filtered from the blood. The lungs excrete carbon dioxide, produced as a waste in respiration. The skin excretes various substances in sweat, including nitrogenous waste. We also pass faeces from the anus at the end of the alimentary canal, but biologists call this as egestion, not excretion, because this is not waste made in the body, just the leftover parts of food that were never absorbed in the first place.

Why is it necessary to excrete waste products?
Any system which consumes "intake" - be it an animal's digestion or a car's engine - must either use that intake totally, or dispose of that part of the intake which is not used. If the unused portion is not disposed of the system will clog as this 'waste' accumulates. If you block a car's exhaust pipe, the engine will soon stop as the waste gases have nowhere to go. If an animal were not able to excrete its waste products then its bladder and its bowels would swell up continually to try to store the waste. Eventually, were there no limit to how big these could grow to, the animal would be unable to move.
