Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Kidneys are a special filter system for your body. Kidneys remove waste products from the blood and produce urine. Kidneys control the levels of many substances in the blood.

Detailed explanation-2: -Their main job is to cleanse the blood of toxins and transform the waste into urine. Each kidney weighs about 160 grams and gets rid of between one and one-and-a-half litres of urine per day. The two kidneys together filter 200 litres of fluid every 24 hours.

Detailed explanation-3: -Your kidneys remove wastes and extra fluid from your body. Your kidneys also remove acid that is produced by the cells of your body and maintain a healthy balance of water, salts, and minerals-such as sodium, calcium, phosphorus, and potassium-in your blood.

Detailed explanation-4: -Here’s how kidneys perform their important work: Blood enters the kidneys through an artery from the heart. Blood is cleaned by passing through millions of tiny blood filters. Waste material passes through the ureter and is stored in the bladder as urine.
