Cell
Nerve cells receive and
transmit nerve impulses
between the sense
organs and the brain.

Reproductive
cells take part in
fertilisation to
reproduce young
for the next
generation.

Excretory system kidney

Our blood passes through the
kidneys 300 times a day.
The nephrons clean all your
blood in 45 minutes.
Every day the nephrons send
about six cups of urine to the
bladder.

Excretory system- skin

pores

sweat gland

Sweat is excreted through the pores in our skin.

Sweat is a mixture of three metabolic waste:
water, salt and urea.
Sweating gives a cooling effect to the
body..

Excretory system- lungs

Carbon dioxide and water vapour

are produced as waste products.

lungs

Excretory system- liver

The liver helps to get rid of
unwanted waste in the body.
It changes toxic ammonia,
which is a poisonous gas into
urea, a harmless fluid.

Male reproductive system

The male contributes to reproduction by
producing sperms.
The sperm fertilises the egg in the
female body.
The fertilised egg (zygote) gradually
develops into a foetus, and later born as
a child.

uterus

ovary

It contains two main parts: the vagina and uterus,

which act as the receptacle for the male's sperm.
The ovaries produce the female's ovum.
