to regulate the composition of body fluids by removing metabolic wastes and retain the balance of water, salt, and other nutrients
to regulate and maintain bodily functions by producing hormones and releasing them into the blood stream
to enable the diffusion of oxygen into the bloodstream and the removal of carbon dioxide from the bloodstream
