Circulation
Fluids are called secretions when they are produced and released by specialized cells or glands in the body. These secretions often contain specific substances such as enzymes, hormones, or mucus that serve various functions in the body, such as digestion, lubrication, or communication within the body.
Waste fluids from your body are filtered by the kidneys to remove toxins and excess substances. These fluids are then excreted as urine through the urinary system.
Active transport of substances from the blood into the nephron is called tubular secretion. This process involves the movement of certain substances, such as drugs and ions, from the blood into the renal tubules for excretion in the urine. It helps in regulating the composition of body fluids and maintaining homeostasis.
Blood flow in the circulatory system is a phenomenon similar to cytoplasmic streaming, where fluids move continuously throughout the body to transport nutrients, gases, and waste products. This movement is essential for distributing essential substances and maintaining homeostasis within the body.

The organelle within liver cells responsible for detoxifying body fluids of poisonous chemicals is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum, especially the enzymes located in its membranes. These enzymes help in the process of detoxification by breaking down harmful substances into less toxic compounds that can be excreted from the body.

The unit in charge of examining body fluids and organs for drugs and poisons is the forensic toxicology unit within a forensic laboratory. They use various analytical techniques to detect and identify substances present in the body that may have contributed to a person's death or played a role in a crime.

The major anion in body fluids is chloride (Cl-). It helps maintain electrolyte balance, regulates fluid movement, and plays a role in acid-base balance in the body.
The symbol found in body fluids is the universal biohazard symbol. It is typically used to indicate the presence of potentially harmful biological materials, such as blood or other bodily fluids, and serves as a warning to take precautions when dealing with these substances.
Body fluids, cellular secretions, and intracellular matrix
The main function of the excretory system is to remove waste and excess substances from the body, maintaining a proper balance of fluids and electrolytes. This system also helps regulate blood pressure and pH levels within the body.
