Urinary System
Our bodies produce several kinds of wastes,
including sweat, carbon dioxide gas, feces (also
known as stool), and urine (pee). These wastes exit
the body in different ways: Sweat is released
through pores (tiny holes) in the skin. Water vapor
and carbon dioxide are exhaled (breathed out)
from the lungs. And undigested food materials are
formed into feces in the intestines and excreted
from the body as solid waste in bowel movements.
