The two kidneys of humans are located behind the abdomen.  The kidneys regulate how much water, sodium, potassium, calcium, and phosphate are in the blood.  The kidneys also remove waste products from the body such as uric acid.  Each kidney is filled with capillaries wrapped around very tiny nephrons which filter the blood.

The liver is an organ in vertebrates, including humans. It plays a major role in metabolism and has a number of functions in the body including glycogen storage, plasma protein synthesis, and drug detoxification. It also produces bile, which is important in digestion. It has been described as the chemical plant of the body, as it performs and regulates a wide variety of high-volume biochemical reactions requiring specialized tissues. Medical terms related to the liver often start in hepato- or hepatic from the Greek word for liver, hepar.

The excretory system is responsible for removing waste materials from the body. The primary organ for excretion is the kidney which releases waste in the form of urine. Another organ of excretion is the skin which removes waste from the body in the form of sweat. Another organ of excretion is the lung. The lung is responsible for removing Carbon dioxide and water vapor. And the last member of the said system is the large intestine. The large intestine is responsible for removing undigested food from the body. The process of doing so is called elimination rather than excretion.
