The Excretory System
Hello and welcome to our adventure through the excretory system. Today you will learn all
about the excretory system, like what all the organs are, what are their functions, common
diseases, and many more. We hope you have a fun learning experience.
What the system does for the body cells
• The excretory system is a system of organs that
removes waste products from the body. If these
wastes stock up, it becomes dangerous to the body’s
health. If the cells die, you die.
Your Kidneys
As your blood travels along within your body, it becomes more and more
polluted with urea and other wastes. Eventually the blood enters a special filter
known as your kidneys. Your kidneys are bean shaped organs. As your blood
enters your kidneys, the blood is cleaned, getting rid of urea. The urea is sent to
your bladder for storage in the form of urine. It takes about 45 minutes for your
kidneys to filter all the blood in your body.
When cells in the body break down
Proteins, they produce wastes such as
urea.
Your Bladder
Slowly but surely, your bladder fills up with urine being produced by your kidneys.
Eventually as your bladder fills, you will feel a sensation telling your brain that you
Need to remove the urine from your body. Urine leaves your body through the
process of urination, commonly known as peeing.
When your urine is a bright yellow, that indicates that

This type of kidney cancer is called renal cell carcinoma. The good news is that most of kidney
cancers are found before they spread to distant organs. And cancers caught early are easier to treat
successfully. However, these tumors can grow to be quite large before they are detected.

system by exposing of wastes. If the excretory didn’t
work with the digestive system, wastes would ad up,
