Summary Introduction

To determine: The organ systems involved in the elimination of wastes from animal bodies.

Introduction: Animals have different organs and organ systems to perform different functions but all these systems are integrated to ensure proper and coordinated functioning of the body. The integrated and coordinated functioning between the different systems is important to create an integrated and appropriate response to the environment.

The respiratory system is capable of absorbing oxygen and excreting carbon dioxide. The digestive system absorbs nutrients from the diet and excrete indigestible material including wastes. Likewise, the urinary system is capable of absorbing and excreting water and electrolytes according to the needs of the body. These functions may appear to be distinct and separate from each other, but the systems are so organized that they are interdependent on each other and together contribute to the welfare of the body by keeping it in balance or in a state of homeostasis. Create a concept map that illustrates the physiology of acid base balance that unites the three systems (Respiratory, Digestive and Urinary systems) together.
