Study Notes
Excretion
- Excretion is the process by which animals eliminate metabolic waste products.
- Metabolic waste products are the by-products of cellular metabolism that cannot be used by the animal.
- These waste products include carbon dioxide, water, salts, and nitrogenous wastes.
- Nitrogenous wastes are ammonia, urea, and uric acid.
- Different animals excrete these waste products in different forms, depending on their environment.
- Animals that live in water can excrete ammonia directly into the water.
- Animals that live on land excrete urea or uric acid to conserve water.
- Ammonia is toxic, and animals must convert it into a less toxic form before excretion.
- Urea is less toxic than ammonia and can be excreted with less water loss.
- Uric acid is the least toxic form of nitrogenous waste and is excreted with minimal water loss.
Types of Nitrogenous wastes
- Ammonia: highly toxic, excreted by aquatic animals.
- Urea: less toxic than ammonia, excreted by mammals and some amphibians.
- Uric acid: least toxic, excreted by birds and reptiles.
Excretory organs
- Various excretory structures exist depending on the organism's lifestyle and stage.
- Aquatic animals like aquatic invertebrates, can excrete waste through osmosis.
- Some animals have specialized organs for excretion, such as kidneys in mammals, gills in fish, lungs in humans, or skin in amphibians.
Excretion in other organisms
- The excretory organ in insects is the Malpighian tubule.
- The excretory organ in flatworms is the protonephridia or flame cells.
- The excretory organ in annelids is metanephridia (eg. earthworm).
- The excretory organ in many vertebrates is the kidney in nephrons.
Kidney Functions
- Filter blood to remove waste products and regulate water balance.
- Regulate water balance by reabsorbing water from filtrate.
- Regulate blood pressure.
- Assist in maintaining homeostasis by balancing electrolytes (e.g., Na⁺, K⁺).
- Remove toxins.
Human Excretion
- The human excretory system includes two kidneys, two ureters, a bladder, and a urethra.
- Kidneys filter blood to remove waste products and produce urine.
- Urine flows from the kidneys through the ureters to the bladder.
- The bladder stores urine until it is expelled from the body through the urethra.
Homeostatic control of water in humans
- The hypothalamus receives information about the body's fluid balance.
- The hypothalamus releases antidiuretic hormone (ADH).
- ADH acts on the collecting ducts in the kidneys, increasing water reabsorption.
- ADH secretion is regulated by the concentration of sodium and water in the blood.
- Water reabsorption conserves water within the body to maintain homeostasis.
- Dehydration increases blood osmolarity; increased osmolarity stimulates ADH secretion and, therefore, more water reabsorption and increased water conservation.
Blood vs. Urine vs. Filtrate
- Blood contains many nutrients, proteins, and blood cells.
- Filtrate does not contain high levels of protein or blood cells.
- Urine contains only waste products like urea and excess water.
Regulation of Blood Pressure
- Blood pressure regulation requires many components involving the heart (eg., CO₂ regulation and arterial pressure).
- Regulation of blood pressure is maintained by the kidney.
- Blood pressure can be affected by factors such as blood volume, electrolytes, and hormones.
- The kidney helps to maintain adequate blood volume by reabsorbing or excreting water and electrolytes.
- The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) helps to regulate blood pressure by regulating the production of hormones that regulate blood pressure and volume.
- The RAAS system is triggered by low blood pressure and/or low blood volume.
Kidney Disease
- Kidney disease can lead to various symptoms and complications.
- Kidney disease can result from many factors, e.g., diabetes, high blood pressure, or inflammation.
- Kidney disease can be fatal if not treated on time.
- Loss of function can lead to decreased filtration, therefore, an increase in concentration of wastes.
Dialysis
- Blood dialysis replaces or regulates water balance in people with impaired or non-functional kidney function.
- Dialysis removes wastes from the bloodstream to prevent further body damage.
