The kidneys maintain our body's water balance by controlling the water concentration of blood plasma. The kidneys also control salt levels and the excretion of urea. Water that is not put back into the blood is excreted in our urine.
There's six main functions of the skeletal system
1 - Support
Provides structural support for the entire body.
2 - Protection
Surrounds soft tissue- ex. ribs and sternum protect the heart and lungs, - skull protects the brain.
3 - Movement
Skeletal muscle is attached to bone so it pulls on the bone when it contracts.
4 - Mineral homeostasis
Stores calcium and phosphorus--minerals are released into the blood when needed.
5 - Blood cell production
Red bone marrow produces red blood cells, white blood cells and other blood elements.
6 - Storage
Storage of minerals and lipids(fats)---yellow marrow stores fat --(found in long bones).
