Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The urinary system is responsible for maintaining the body’s water balance by regulating the amount of water and electrolytes in the body. It accomplishes this by filtering waste and excess water from the blood to produce urine. Burning food for energy is the function of the digestive system, while hormone production is primarily the function of the endocrine system. Bringing water into the body is not a specific function of any one system but is necessary for the urinary system to work effectively.
