Excretory system - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Only 1% was send away
    - - Blood goes through the glomerulus and to the Bowman's capsule
        
        It get squeezed until only small fluids and waste was left
        
        Then it goes into proximal convoluted tubule
      - From proximal convoluted tubule:
        
        The substances goes into Loop of Henle
        
        Loop of Henle
        
        Pass through two layers of the kidney
        
        Renal cortex
        
        Renal medulla
        
        Outer medulla
        
        Inner medulla
        
        Discovered by Friedrich Gustav Jakob Henle
        
        Extracts
        
        Water
        
        Salt
        
        Makes the medulla hypertonic
        
        After the Loop of Henle, the substance goes into the Distal Convoluted Tubule
        
        Here, the level of Calcium, Potassium and Sodium is regulated
    - - Contains metabolic waste, water, urea
- - - - Being released by the excretory system
      - Made out of ammonia & CO2
      - Made in liver
      - Low toxicity
- - - - Excretes water
    - - Excretes CO2
    - - Breaks down toxic substances in blood and turns nitrogenous waste into urea
