The answer is natural killer cells.

Natural killer cells are a type of lymphocytes and they are important for the innate immune system. They recognise stressed cells much faster than other immune cells. Their response is rapid and usually only a few days after a viral infection. They also respond to <span>cancer cell </span>formation. While other immune cells can detect only those harmful cells that have specific markers on the surface of the cell membrane, natural killer cells can even detect those cells that miss markers for apoptosis.

Define the term excretion.
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Excretion is a process in which metabolic waste is eliminated from an organism. In vertebrates this is primarily carried out by the lungs, kidneys, and skin.

Carbon dioxide

The liver regulates most chemical levels in the blood and excretes a product called bile. This helps carry away waste products from the liver. All the blood leaving the stomach and intestines passes through the liver. The liver processes this blood and breaks down, balances, and creates the nutrients and also metabolizes drugs into forms that are easier to use for the rest of the body or that are nontoxic.
