Solution

(c) excretory system
Dialysis is the process of removing wastes using an artificial kidney. Hence, if a patient is out on dialysis, he is most likely suffering from a severe ailment of excretory system. It is because kidneys are a part of human excretory system and in case of kidney failure, to remove the accumulated wastes from the body, blood is filtered periodically through an artificial kidney.
