2.68 recall that the lungs, kidneys and skin are organs of excretion

Excretion (removal of waste products) is carried out by the skin, the lungs and the kidneys.

The skin excretes waste salt etc as sweat (perspiration), the lungs excrete carbon dioxide, the kidneys excrete urea (urea is produces from excess amino acid in the liver).
