Q

Explain: Protein -> Ammonia -> Urea

A

In the stomach, when protein gets digested, it produces ammonia.
The ammonia is absorbed into the blood and carried to the liver.
There, most of the ammonia is converted into urea with ATP.
The urea re-enters the blood and is carried to the kidneys and enters the nephrons.
