B
liver
C
kidney
D
colon
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The kidneys remove from the blood the nitrogenous wastes such as urea, as well as salts and excess water, and excrete them in the form of urine. This is done with the help of millions of nephrons present in the kidney.

Detailed explanation-2: -The kidneys function to excrete water, solutes, and metabolic wastes in order to maintain a homeostatic internal environment despite fluctuations in diet and fluid balance.

Detailed explanation-3: -The kidneys filter out the waste products and excess fluids from the body and dispose of them in the form of urine, via the bladder. The clean blood flows back to the other parts of the body. If your kidneys did not remove this waste, it would build up in the blood and cause damage to your body.
