You do need help. Excretion refers to purifying the blood by removing harmful or toxic materials from the blood. These harmful materials are a.) Carbon dioxide from metabolism of sugar that is excreted via the lungs while breathing. b.) Urea and nitrogenous wastes excreted by the kidneys. What you have referred to is micturition or peeing as the other two answers rightly point out. A note from google regarding increased urine production Definition. Diuresis is a condition in which the kidneys filter too much bodily fluid. That increases your urine production and the frequency with which you need to use the bathroom. ... Diuresis may be caused by various conditions and medications.
