2. Excretion is the collection & elimination of
metabolic waste across the cell membrane.
Certain products are toxic byproducts of
metabolic activities, so they are excreted out.
INTRODUCTION
The wastes are CO2, H2O, bile pigments,
nitrogenous wastes, excess of inorganic salts,
hormones, vitamins etc.
Nitrogenous wastes are the main products to
be eliminated formed due to catabolism of
glucose, amino acids, glycerol & fatty acids.
