Dermatologist is a skin specialist, psychiatrist treats mental illness, cardiologist deals in problems of cardiovascular system and nephrologist treats kidney problems.

The kidneys remove waste products from the blood, including:

• Urea: A waste product formed when the body breaks down proteins.
• Water: Excess water that the body doesn't need.
• Salts: Excess salts or electrolytes that are not required by the body.

These waste products are then excreted in the form of urine. The kidneys help maintain the balance of fluids and salts in the body.

• Respiratory system: Includes organs like the lungs, responsible for breathing and gas exchange.

The correct option is A: Cells → Tissues → Organs → Organ Systems → Organism.
This is the correct sequence of organization in living organisms. Cells are the basic building blocks of life. A group of similar cells forms a tissue. Multiple tissues combine to form organs. A group of organs that work together for a specific function makes an organ system, and all organ systems together form an organism.

Bones provide the structure for our bodies. The adult human skeleton is made up of 206 bones.

• A. True: Bones are indeed made up of calcium, which provides them with strength and structure.
• B. False: Arteries do not connect capillaries and veins. Instead, arteries carry blood away from the heart, and veins carry blood back to the heart. Capillaries connect arteries and veins at the tissue level.
• C. True: Ureters do not store urine; they are tubes that transport urine from the kidneys to the bladder, where urine is stored temporarily.
