Excretions The excretions are much fewer in number than the among them are the products of retrogressive proteid-metamorphosis which are excreted by all living substance. Among gaseous excretions the most important one, whose pro-duction is associated with the life of every cell without ex-ception, is carbonic acid, the end-product of respiration ; it isproduced chiefly by the oxidation and the decomposition ofproteid, but under certain circumstances by the fermentation ofcarbohydrates.
