Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Kidneys help in the elimination of wastes from the body in the form of urine. Kidneys are the main organs of excretion in humans. Apart from kidneys, other organs like lungs, liver, skin and sebaceous glands also help in excretion.

Detailed explanation-2: -Other than the urinary system, skin, lungs, and even eyes helps in excreting waste products in different forms. Sweating is a mode of excretion where water, urea, and other salts are excreted through the skin. Lungs help us to exhale gaseous wastes such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, etc.

Detailed explanation-3: -The kidneys filter urea and other waste products from the blood, which are then added to the urine within the bladder. Other organs, such as the liver, process toxins but put their wastes back into the blood. It is up to the kidneys to filter the blood so that toxic substances do not accumulate.

Detailed explanation-4: -Although the kidneys are the main organs of excretion, several other organs also excrete waste s. They include the large intestine, liver, skin, and lungs. All of these organs of excretion, along with the kidneys, make up the excretory system.
