Answer;

The digestive system excretes a solid waste and the excretory system excretes a liquid waste.

Explanation;

  • Digestive system is the system in the body that breaks down food substances to enhance their absorption, but also excretes solid indigestible substances through the process of defecation.
  • Excretory system on the other hand is a system in the body that removes homeostatic wastes from from the body, a process called excretion. Excretory encompasses organs such as liver, sweat glands, lungs and liver which all play key roles in excretion of homeostatic wastes in form of fluids.
  • Excretory system collects and then filters excess water in the body and then excretes it as a liquid waste either from the liver, kidneys, or sweat glands on the skin through sweating.
