There is a pair of bean-shaped organs Pin the human body towards the back, just above the waist. A waste product Q formed by the decomposition of unused proteins in the liver is brought into organ I' through blood by an artery R. The numerous tiny filters S present in organ P clean the dirty blood by removing the waste product Q. The clean blood goes into circulation through a vein T. The waste substance Q, other waste salts, and excess water form a yellowish liquid U which goes from organ P into a bag-like structure V through two tubes W. This liquid is then thrown out of the body through a tube X.
