Problem 23

Background and context

In the body, the excretory system is found as the system which is used for the removal of toxic waste from the body and helps in maintaining the internal environment of the body. To maintain stable homeostasis, the excretory organs must regulate the concentration of electrolytes such as hydrogen ions, sodium ions, and potassium ions. This performs a combined function of the excretory system in the elimination of the waste and maintains the concentration of electrolytes.
