Excretion and the liver Excretion in mammals Excretion is the removal of potentially harmful or toxic substances from the body. These substances are usually waste materials produced by complex chemical reactions taking place in living cells. Enzymes catalyse the reactions.
1 Your liver makes and stores fuel. 2  Your liver makes glucose from carbohydrates (say car-bow-hi-drates) that you eat, such as ones in bread, fruit and dairy products. 3  Some of this glucose travels in the blood to the rest of the body where it is used for energy. For example the liver makes urea (say you-rear) from parts of proteins that can't be used. 2  It is poisonous so the body has to remove it. 3  Blood collects this urea from the liver and sends it to the kidneys. 4  They filter urea from the blood and it is then expelled from the body as waste in your urine.
