Question at position 1 The urinary system excretes carbon-containing wastes from the body.TrueFalse

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

Question rephrase: The statement to evaluate is whether the urinary system excretes carbon-containing wastes from the body, with True/False as the choices.
Option 1: True. The idea here is that urine contains wastes like urea, uric acid, and creatinine, which are indeed organic compounds that include carbon atoms. However, the characterization 'carbon-containing wastes' is a broad claim about all wastes excreted by the urinary system. In biology, a large portion of waste carbon actually leaves the body as carbon dioxide via the respiratory system rather than through urine.
Option 2: False. This answer would be chosen if we focus on the common, dominant view that the primary carbon-containing waste product excreted by the urinary system is not the principal route for carbon disposal. While urine does contain some carbon-containing molecules (e.g., urea), the statement oversimplifies and misattributes the main pathway for carbon waste disposal, since respiration handles most carbon dioxide exhalation.
Rationale for why Option 1 (True) is imperfect: It acknowledges that urine can contain carbon-containing substances, but it overstates the idea that the urinary system is responsible for all carbon-containing wastes. The body eliminates carbon in two major ways: as CO2 through the lungs and as nitrogenous, organic wastes in urine. The claim lumps all carbon waste into a single urinary pathway, which is not accurate.
Rationale for why Option 2 (False) is appropriate: The statement is misleading because it implies the urinary system handles all carbon-containing wastes, disregarding the primary route of carbon disposal (respiration). It also ignores that while urine does carry carbon-containing compounds, carbon dioxide exhaled by the lungs is a major, if not the primary, carbon waste product for the body.
In summary, the statement is considered false in this context because it misrepresents the distribution of carbon waste elimination across body systems; the urinary system does excrete some carbon-containing wastes, but it is not the sole or primary means by which carbon-containing wastes are excreted.
