Detailed explanation-1: -This is the job of the excretory system. You remove waste as a gas (carbon dioxide), as a liquid (urine and sweat), and as a solid. Excretion is the process of removing wastes and excess water from the body. Recall that carbon dioxide travels through the blood and is transferred to the lungs where it is exhaled.
Detailed explanation-2: -They are: Ammonotelism (Type of excretion-ammonia) Ureotelism (Type of excretion – urea) Uricotelism (Type of excretion – uric acid)
