Which organ helps in removing CO₂ and significant amounts of water?

Which organ helps in removing CO₂ and significant amounts of water?

Options

  1. ALiver
  2. BKidneys
  3. CLungs
  4. DSkin

Correct answer

C. Lungs

Step-by-step solution

Other than the kidneys, lungs, liver and skin also help in the elimination of excretory wastes. Our lungs remove large amounts of CO₂ (approximately 200mL/ minute) and also significant quantities of water every day. Liver, the largest gland in our body, secretes bile-containing substances like bilirubin, biliverdin, cholesterol, degraded steroid hormones, vitamins and drugs. Most of these substances ultimately pass out alongwith digestive wastes.
