The document summarizes the excretory system and its key organs. The lungs, skin, colon, and kidneys work to remove waste from the body. The lungs exhale carbon dioxide, the skin sweats out water and salts, the colon removes bacteria and waste from digestion, and the kidneys filter waste from the bloodstream and regulate water and salt levels. The liver also plays an important role in breaking down toxins, drugs, and other substances before they are excreted by other organs.
The lungs in the respiratory system excrete some waste products, such as carbon dioxide and water.
The skin is another excretory organ that rids the body of wastes through the sweat glands.
The liver (via the intestines) excretes bile pigments that result from the destruction of hemoglobin. It also converts nitrogenous waste from the break down of proteins into urea.
The major task of excretion still belongs to the kidneys, the major organ in the urinary system. If it fails the other organs cannot take over and compensate adequately.

A powerpoint on the Human Excretory System, intended for the SA Grade 11 Life Sciences Syllabus. Includes information on kidneys, osmoregulation, nephrons, excretion, etc. Hope it helps :)
Excretory system and its brief discussionরেজা তানজিল
The excretory system is a passive biological system that removes excess, unnecessary materials from the body fluids of an organism, so as to help maintain internal chemical homeostasis and prevent damage to the body. The dual function of excretory systems is the elimination of the waste products of metabolism and to drain the body of used up and broken down components in a liquid and gaseous state. In humans and other amniotes (mammals, birds and reptiles) most of these substances leave the body as urine and to some degree exhalation, mammals also expel them through sweating.
Only the organs specifically used for the excretion are considered a part of the excretory system. In the narrow sense, the term refer to the urinary system. However, as excretion involves several functions that are only superficially related, it is not usually used in more formal classifications of anatomy or function.
As most healthy functioning organs produce metabolic and other wastes, the entire organism depends on the function of the system. Breaking down of one of more of the systems is a serious health condition, for example kidney failure.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Certain waste products would become highly
toxic if they were to accumulate. This could
damage tissues.
An excess of water could also lead to a number
of complications.
Thus, the waste products must be removed –
they continually move into the bloodstream,
which carries them to the excretory organs.

4. There are four main excretory organs:
Lungs
Colon (large intestine)
Skin
Kidneys
The liver is not an excretory organ, but produces many
products which are excreted elsewhere. Toxins and
drugs as well as alcohol, is broken down in the liver.
Hence, an excess of smoking, medication and alcohol is
extremely harmful to the liver.
5. The carbon
dioxide released
from cellular
respiration is carried
to the lungs in the
blood. It then diffuses
across the respiratory
membrane and is
exhaled.

6. Bile pigments, from the break
down of haemoglobin, and
cholesterol are synthesised
in the liver.
They pass into the small
intestine as bile and are finally
excreted in the faeces as bile
salts, from the colon.
Mucus and bacteria are too
excreted through the colon.
7. Sweat, which is excreted through the skin, contains water,
salts and some urea.
As the water in the sweat is excreted, heat is lost and the
body is cooled.
Sweat is a form of excretion as it rids the body of waste, as
well as a form of secretion as it maintains the body
temperature.

11. The main function of the urinary system is to maintain
homeostasis by regulating the volume and concentration of
body fluids. It filters and reabsorbs certain materials from the
blood.
The urinary system is made up of
the following parts:
A) Two kidneys
B) Two ureters
C) A bladder
D) An urethra
12. The kidneys aid in:
excretion as they filter
waste out of the blood
regulate the water and
salt balance in the body.
They secrete some
hormones, that control
blood pressure or red
blood cell production, for
example.
One kidney – the right
kidney – is slightly lower
than the left as it is pushed
down by the liver, which is

waste products to the
kidney and supplies
the kidneys with
oxygen and nutrients.
Renal vein: contains
the purest blood in the
body. It carries CO2
to the inferior vena
cava.

Is stimulated by impulses from a motor nerve, to contract to expel the
urine (micturition reflex).
Has sphincter muscles at the base to control the flow of urine.
Carries urine from the bladder to outside the body.
A MAN’S urethra is CONNECTED WITH A DUCT OF THE

A WOMAN’S urethras are INDEPENDENT OF HER REPRODUCTIVE
SYSTEM.
Carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder.
