Removal rate of carbon dioxide by lungs is approximately:
1. | 125 ml/minute | 2. | 200 ml/minute |
3. | 280 ml/minute | 4. | 325 ml/minute |
Sterols, hydrocarbons and waxes can be eliminated through:
1. | Saliva | 2. | Sweat |
3. | Sebum | 4. | Tears |
I: | Our lungs remove approximately 200mL/minute of CO2 |
II: | Liver secretes bile-containing substances like bilirubin, biliverdin, cholesterol, degraded steroid hormones, vitamins and drugs. |
III: | Sweat produced by the sweat glands is a watery fluid containing NaCl, small amounts of urea, lactic acid, etc. |
IV: | Sebaceous glands eliminate certain substances like sterols, hydrocarbons and waxes through sebum. |
1. | Lungs remove large amount of carbon dioxide. |
2. | Sweat contains sodium chloride, small amount of urea and lactic acid. |
3. | Sebaceous glands eliminate sterols, hydrocarbons, and waxes. |
4. | Saliva does not eliminate any nitrogenous waste |
