Solution
The correct option is C Pancreas
- The role played by the liver in excretion is a conversion of ammonia (a major toxic metabolic nitrogenous product) into urea which is excreted through urine.
- Sweat is primarily composed of water (99%), various salts, and organic compounds in solution. It contains minute amounts of fatty materials, urea, and other wastes. It removes sweat.
- Enzymes, or digestive juices, produced by the pancreas are secreted into the small intestine to further break down food after it has left the stomach. It has no role in excretion.
- So, the correct answer is option C.
