E.Q. How do the digestive and excretory systems provide homeostasis for our bodies? Homeo - same stasis - stand still ~The body’s ability to make adjustments in order to stay in constant balance. Homeostasis in the Digestive and Excretory Systems The digestive system’s function is to break down food into the nutrients the body can absorb so that these nutrients can be used by the body's cells. The excretory system (urinary system) helps with the removal of chemical wastes from the body. Once the digestive system has absorbed what can be used, there are chemical wastes that need to be eliminated which is what the urinary (excretory) system does. Therefore, homeostasis is managed; the body’s nutrient absorption and elimination of chemical wastes occurs leaving the body in balance.
