About this document
Overview of the Excretory System by Tanti is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The excretory system is responsible for the removal of toxic materials and metabolic waste, primarily through the kidneys, which filter blood and produce urine. Key processes include filtration, reabsorption, and secretion, regulated by hormones such as ADH and aldosterone to maintain fluid balance and electrolyte concentration. Pathologies related to the excretory system include kidney stones, kidney failure, and infections, among others.
