EXCRETION (Govt Jobs MCQ)

EXCRETION (ADRE)


EXCRETION 
Excretion is the biological process by which an organism eliminates waste products and toxins from its body. This is essential for maintaining homeostasis and preventing damage to the organism. In humans and other animals, excretion primarily involves the removal of metabolic waste products such as carbon dioxide, urea, and salts. The main excretory organs include:

1. **Kidneys**: Filter blood to produce urine, removing urea, excess salts, and water.
2. **Lungs**: Expel carbon dioxide and water vapor produced during respiration.
3. **Skin**: Excretes sweat, which contains water, salts, and some urea.
4. **Liver**: Converts toxic substances into less harmful compounds, some of which are excreted in bile.

Other organisms have different mechanisms and structures for excretion, but the fundamental purpose is the same: to maintain a stable internal environment by removing harmful byproducts of metabolism.
