Human Excretory system: Kidney

The organ system which is used to remove waste products from the body is called the human excretory system and the Kidneys play an important role.
The major waste product generated in the human body is urea, along with which some other toxins are also generated.
Urea is eliminated by the kidneys by the process of urination and solid wastes are removed from the body by the intestines.
The kidneys play vital roles, including filtering wastes from the blood, regulating blood pressure, and balancing the fluid, salt, and acid in the body.
The kidneys also help to maintain homeostasis by regulating the concentration and volume of body fluids.
