Vedclass · Answer

(B) In mammals,urea is produced in the liver through the ornithine cycle (urea cycle) as a byproduct of amino acid metabolism.Since the liver is the site of urea synthesis,the blood leaving the liver via the hepatic vein contains the highest concentration of urea compared to any other blood vessel in the body.The renal vein carries blood away from the kidneys,which have already filtered the urea out of the blood,so it contains the lowest concentration of urea.The dorsal aorta carries oxygenated blood to various parts of the body,and the hepatic portal vein carries blood from the digestive tract to the liver,neither of which has as high a concentration of urea as the hepatic vein.
