In Birds, ammonia is converted into 'A' in 'B' by 'C' and excreted through kidney.
Identify A, B and C
Options:
Answer:
D
Solution:
Birds are uricotelic animals, meaning they excrete nitrogenous waste primarily in the form of uric acid. This is an adaptation to conserve water, as uric acid is the least toxic nitrogenous waste and requires minimum water for its elimination.
The conversion of ammonia into uric acid takes place in the liver.
The biochemical pathway responsible for the synthesis of uric acid from ammonia is the inosinic acid pathway.
Therefore, A is uric acid, B is liver, and C is inosinic acid pathway.
Answer: A- uric acid, B-liver and C-inosinic acid pathway
