Due to metabolism several harmful excretory products are formed and process of removing toxic |
waste from the body is called execretion. |

The human excretory system comprises a pair of kidneys, a pair of ureters, urinary bladder, urethra. |
Each kidney is composed of approximately 1.3 to 1.8 millions of uriniferous tubules or nephrons, |
which are structural and functional units of kidney. |
A nephron comprises glomerulus,bowman’s capsule, proximal convoluted tubule (PCT), Henle’s |
loop, Distal convoluted tubule (DCT) and collecting tubule. |
Formation of urine involves four stages. 1) Glomerular filteration, 2) Tubular Reabsorption, |
3) Tubular Secretion, 4) Concentration of Urine. |

Kidneys remove nitrogenous waste from body, maintains water balance (osmoregulation), salt |
content, pH, and blood pressure in human body. |

Different animals have different excretory organs e.g. amoeba-contractile vacuole, platyhelminthes- |
flame cells, annelida-nephridia, arthropoda-malpighian tubule, reptiles, birds and mammals-kidney. |
There are no special organs for excretion in plants. Plants store different waste materials in leaves, |
bark, roots, seeds which fall of from the plants. |
Plant metabolites are two types i) primary metabolites eg: proteins carbohydrates and fats. |
ii) secondary metabolites eg: alkoloids, gums, tannins, latex and resins. These are economically important |

Excretion is the removal of material from living beings where as secretion is movement of materials |
from one point to other. |
