Verified step by step guidance

Identify the primary function of each body system listed in the options. Consider what role each system plays in the body, particularly in relation to waste removal.

Understand that the urinary system is responsible for filtering blood to remove waste products and excess substances, forming urine as a result.

Recognize that the digestive system is involved in breaking down food, absorbing nutrients, and eliminating solid waste through the process of defecation.

Consider the roles of the respiratory and circulatory systems, which are primarily involved in gas exchange and transporting nutrients and oxygen, rather than direct waste removal.

Evaluate the functions of the nervous and endocrine systems, which are primarily involved in communication and regulation of body processes, not direct waste removal.
