UP Board Class 11 Biology – Excretory Products and Their Elimination
The chapter “Excretory Products and Their Elimination” in UP Board Class 11 Biology explains how animals, including humans, remove metabolic waste to maintain homeostasis. It focuses on the types of excretory products, such as urea, uric acid, ammonia, and creatinine, and their importance in detoxifying the body.
Students learn about the human excretory system, including the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra, along with the structure and function of nephrons, the functional units of the kidney. The chapter also covers urine formation, involving filtration, reabsorption, and secretion, and the regulation of water and electrolyte balance.
Understanding excretion is crucial for studying human physiology, renal health, and metabolic processes. This chapter lays a strong foundation for advanced studies in medicine, biology, and competitive exams like NEET, AIIMS, and CUET.
