If it is allowed to accumulate in the body, it may produce harmful effects. These wastes are completely excreted from our body through digestive tracts, respiratory tracts, and by the sweat glands. The principal system that is involved in the excretion of waste is the urinary system. From the blood, the metabolic waste is removed by the kidney. The rest of the urinary system involves in the elimination of urine, storage, and for transport. The kidney plays a significant role in controlling the blood pressure and blood volume.
