THE EXCRETORY SYSTEM
The function of the excretory system is to expel toxic
substances in the form of urine.
The organs that form the excretory system are:
 The kidneys are two organs in the abdomen area. Inside
the kidneys there are lots of capillaries where blood
flows. The kidneys filter the blood. The waste
substances are transformed into urine.
 The ureters are two small tubes. They connect the
kidneys and the bladder.
 The bladder is like an elastic bag that stores the urine
