Vedclass · Answer

(B) The liver is the primary site for the detoxification of ammonia into urea via the urea cycle (ornithine cycle). Ammonia,which is a toxic byproduct of amino acid metabolism,is converted into urea in the liver cells (hepatocytes). Consequently,the blood exiting the liver through the hepatic vein and moving towards the heart contains a significantly higher concentration of urea compared to the blood entering the liver.
