Explanation:  It is a type of poisoning that occurs when a person takes too much of digoxin . Digoxin toxicity is life threatening. The most common symptoms are gastrointestinal and include vomiting, diarrhea, nausea etc. Cardiac arrests are most concerning. It blocks the sodium/potassium ATPase pump. It also causes hyperkalemia. The potassium or sodium ATPase causes sodium to leave cells, allowing potassium to enter, which results in higher serum potassium levels.

____ 15. which excretory organ eliminates water and some chemical wastes in perspiration?
Nastasia [14]
I think the answer is skin. Skin contains sweat glands which secrete a fluid waste called sweat or perspiration; nonetheless, its primary functions are temperature control and release of pheromone. Its role as a part of the excretory is therefore minimal. Additionally, sweating also maintains the levels of salt in the body.
