Our kidneys help to remove waste products from the blood, particularly nitrogen containing compounds.
These we produce as a result of eating protein, but the body has little use for the spare Nitrogen compounds. The kidneys also keep the sodium and potassium levels in the balance the body needs.
This organ occurs very early in evolution. Nephridia appear in simple worms and have this function.
The excretory system, including kidneys, eliminates waste.
The digestive system eliminates solid wastes through the large intestine and rectum. Waste material, in the form of feces, is stored in the rectum before being expelled through the anus during defecation.
A falcon's excretory system works similarly to other birds. Waste products from metabolism are collected by the kidneys, filtered, and then excreted as uric acid, which is less toxic than urea and conserves water in their system. The uric acid is mixed with other waste products and passed out of the body through the cloaca.
The urinary system primarily excretes waste products such as urea, creatinine, and uric acid. These waste products are formed from the breakdown of proteins and nucleic acids in the body. Additionally, the urinary system also eliminates excess water, electrolytes, and other metabolic waste products that are filtered from the blood by the kidneys.
Uncontrolled industrial wastes can contaminate the water system.

The excretory system, including kidneys, eliminates waste.
This is referred to as the Urinary System, which is itself a subset of the Renal System which has functions other than cleaning waste materials from the blood for excretion. The primary organs are the Kidneys.
A recirculating water system conserves water in a closed-loop system by continuously circulating and reusing the same water within the system. This reduces the need for fresh water intake and minimizes water waste, making the system more efficient and sustainable.
The skin primarily eliminates waste products through sweat glands by releasing water, salts, and small amounts of urea. The respiratory system eliminates waste products, such as carbon dioxide, through exhalation. The urinary system filters waste products, such as urea, excess salts, and water, from the blood to form urine, which is then excreted from the body.

The Exceretory System
The digestive system eliminates solid wastes through the large intestine and rectum. Waste material, in the form of feces, is stored in the rectum before being expelled through the anus during defecation.
The large intestine, also known as the colon, absorbs water and electrolytes from digested food to form solid waste (feces). It also houses a large number of beneficial bacteria that help in digestion, produce certain vitamins, and support the immune system. The main function of the large intestine is to store and eliminate waste from the body.
