The major organs of the excretory system include the kidneys, which remove waste from the blood; the ureters, which carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder; and the bladder, which stores urine until it is eliminated from the body through the urethra. The kidneys contain nephrons that filter waste from the blood and produce urine, which contains urea and other waste products.
