Do all mammals excrete waste in the same way?
Technically skin doesn't excrete anything, skin glands aren't there to don't remove waste from the body. They secrete substances instead, which is different from excretion.
Gland skin cells are so called excitable cells, which can transform chemical work into physical. So, for instance, a nerve signal or membrane polarisation can cause glands to secrete the stuff inside.

Because they're closest to humans genetically - so any reactions in the chimps will most likely happen in humans.

They are of group Anthropoid and are even further dived in to the group Pongid (or great apes). They are like this because they are closely related to us in genetic material.
