Excretion • The excretory system monitors the concentration of
body fluids and removes harmful or waste substances
from the body
• Water, nutrients and minerals that exit the body through
excretion, exhaling, or evaporation must be replaced
in equal amounts
• Excretion occurs differently in aquatic and terrestrial
animals

Aquatic Excretion • The fluids of aquatic animals are nearly isotonic to
seawater
o Removing waste through osmosis is difficult
• Even if they live in salt water, fish have unusually low
amounts of salt
• Fish are at risk of constant dehydration (yep, fish get
dehydrated) unless they regulate their waste content
• Cartilaginous fish build waste as a mixture of ammonia
and urea, a combination so toxic it would be deadly to
terrestrial animals
• The high amount of solutes ensures the organisms are
isotonic with the high salt concentrations of their
environments

Terrestrial Excretion • Animals that live near the sea are usually able to drink
saltwater, reducing the likelihood of dehydration
• Some organisms prevent dehydration by secreting high
levels of nitrogenous waste
• Others, like camels, have large amounts of mucus
which collect air/water during exhalation
• Either by removing waste at a high rate or preventing
water loss, organisms are able to conserve water
• Humans accomplish water conservation by adjusting
the amount of water in their waste urine.

Waste Products • Ammonia is the main excretory chemical in fishes
o Ammonia is formed by Amino groups removed from amino acids in digestion.
o Ammonia requires high amounts of water to safely flush out, but little energy to form.
• Amphibians and mammals excrete urea as their main chemical component o Amino groups require more energy to convert to urea, but it
requires less water expenditure
• Reptiles, birds and insects excrete uric acid, o Uric Acid requires the most ATP for conversion but is released
with almost no water loss
• Thus, waste removal requires either lots of water or lots of energy, or a little of both. It all depends on your environment

Excretory System • Other non-human excretory systems
o Planarian organisms contain flame cells which
contain cilia that expel molecules from the body
o Annelids (such as earthworms) have nephridia in
each body segment
• Nephridia are similar to flame cells, but contain
capillaries that reabsorb any nutrients hiding in
the waste before excretion
o Insects contain malphighian tubules.
• MT’s are similar to flame cells, except they are
also able to reabsorb water in watery or humid
environments

Human Excretory System • Kidneys
o Kidneys filter out waste materials from blood and
produce a chemical called urine.
o Urine collects inside the renal pelvis inside the
kidney and is carried to the bladder through the
ureter.
o Each kidney contains millions of tubules called
nephrons, where the kidney forms urine.
o Nephrons are vascular tissue made up of multiple
filtering cells

Human Excretory System • Urine requires three distinct processes
• 1) Glomerular filtration at the glomerular capsule (GET
EVERYTHING OUT)
o Glomerular filtration is the movement of molecules from arteries
through the glomerular wall due to blood pressure
o This filtrate removes everything from the blood except large
plasma proteins and blood cells
o All the nephrons in the body filter 5 liters of blood in about 40
minutes
• 2) Tubular Reabsorption (BRING GOOD STUFF BACK)
o Water needs to be reabsorbed back into the blood
o Nephrons pump Na+ and Cl- ions into the blood, which osmotically attracts water out of the nephron and into the
blood.

Human Excretory System o At the same time, carrier proteins allow recognized nutrients
(glucose, amino acids, etc) to reenter the bloodstream
o Proteins monitoring the blood glucose level are selective about
the amount of glucose returning to blood or staying in urine.
• (Kidneys assume everything is bad and filter everything out
of the blood. Then, they receive information about which nutrients they need and re-filter it back in.
• 3) Tubular Secretion (GET OUT AGAIN!)
o Larger plasma molecules such as uric acid, hydrogen,
ammonia and penicillin are all removed in this tube.
o This is the last stop before urine. They won’t have a chance to
accidentally be reintroduced to blood in step two if they’re
removed here.

Urine • Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) released by the pituitary
affects water re-absorbtion
• ADH is released into the distal tubule of the nephron
when the pituitary senses a low amount of water in the
blood
• The ADH attracts water back into the collecting duct
and carries it to mix with urine
o ADH gives off a heavy greenish-yellow pigment. Hence, urine is
more colored when an organism is dehydrated
• Aldosterone is a hormone that triggers the return of 99%
of sodium back to the blood. o Sodium is needed for Na+/K+ exchange in nerve cells and for maintaining
osmosis in blood
