To find the volume of an object with a graduated cylinder: Take the graduated cylinder and fill it with water to a certain level.
Place the object you are trying to measure in the cylinder.
The level of water will rise to a certain point.
The level of water with the object in it minus the original level will give you the volume.
To just measure the volume of a liquid in the cylinder: Pour the amount of liquid into the cylinder
Have the cylinder on a flat surface and look at the level of liquid at eye level
The volume of liquid will be where the bottom of the curve of the liquid level is. Look at the unit measurement and that will give you the unit of volume.
While the digestive system collects and removes undigested solids, the excretory system filters compounds from the blood stream and collects them in urine. They are closely connected in controlling the amount of water in your body.
