EXCRETION Introduction Humans must get rid of two types of wastes. Wastes from the digestive system (feces) and wastes from metabolic activities (sweat & urine). Removing digestive wastes (pooping) is called egestion.
Diabetes injures the small blood vessels in the body. Such injuries can prevent kidneys from cleaning the blood as it circulates throughout the body. Two forms of waste removed from the blood by the kidneys are blood urea nitrogen and creatinine. Creatinine is a compound resulting from the breakdown of muscle. Urea is a waste product rich in nitrogen and occurs during metabolism or when the body breaks down protein.
