Explanation

Kidneys filter out nitrogenous waste from blood. Also, they help in removal of excess of water from the body. Kidneys are the vital organs for survival. Several factors like infections, injury or restricted blood flow to kidneys, reduce the activity of kidneys. This leads to accumulation of poisonous wastes in the body. The composition of blood is disrupted. It may even lead to death of an organism.
