Urinary system




The urinary system comprises the organs responsible for the formation of urine and the kidneys associated with the elimination of urine. The Rim is an even, abdominal organ located posterior to the parental peritoneum. The kidneys are responsible for the production of urine and also function as endocrine glands because they produce the renin that controls the secretion of aldosterone. Organic activities result in the breakdown of lipid and carbohydrate proteins, accompanied by release of energy and the form of products that must be eliminated to the outside environment. Urine is one of the body's excretion vehicles.
