The kidneys play a crucial role in filtering waste products and excess fluid from the blood, while other organs like the heart and lungs help deliver nutrients and oxygen to the kidneys. The circulatory system transports blood to and from the kidneys for filtration, with the liver metabolizing and detoxifying any substances before they reach the kidneys. The endocrine system also interacts with the kidneys to regulate blood pressure and electrolyte balance. Collaboration among these organs is essential for maintaining overall health and homeostasis in the body.
