Temperature, blood glucose, water and ion content and levels of waste products must all be controlled Waste products that have to be removed include; CO2 (produced by respiration) removed by the lungs urea (produced in the liver when amino acids are broken down) removed by the kidneys and temporarily stored in the bladder Water and ions enter the body when we eat and drink.
