Solution

The principal excretory organs of our body are the kidneys which maintain the chemical composition of the blood. The blood is filtered by the kidney. The wastes are removed from the body by excretion. This structure is responsible for maintaining the chemical composition of the blood by removal and absorption of the various salts, amino acids, glucose and ions. Thus, the kidney is called as master chemist of our body.
