Excretory System
• Why do our bodies need to filter waste from the body?
– Maintain homeostasis– Removal of harmful materials– Removal of excess fluids, chemicals,
minerals, vitamins, salts, and other wastes from the blood

Organs of the Excretory System
• Kidneys = filter blood that has collected wastes from cells

Organs of the Excretory System• Kidneys = filter
blood that has collected wastes from cells– Nephrons = filters
inside the kidneys– Produce urine
(sterile waste fluid, 96% water)

Organs of the Excretory System
• Ureters = tubes that lead from each kidney to bladder

Organs of the Excretory System• Urinary bladder =
muscular organ that holds urine

Organs of the Excretory System
• Urethra = tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body

Where is urine stored until the body is ready to eliminate it?
1. Kidneys2. Ureters3. Bladder4. Urethra

Functions of Excretory System
• Rids blood of wastes (urea)

Functions of Excretory System
• Rids blood of wastes (urea)
• Controls blood volume by removing extra water produced by cells

Functions of Excretory System
• Rids blood of wastes (urea)
• Controls blood volume by removing extra water produced by cells
• Balances salts and water so cells can function properly
