Acetyl CoA and then ketones
Because urea is a waste product formed from the breakdown of proteins in the liver, it cannot be derived from the metabolism of carbohydrates. The metabolism of carbohydrates ultimately results in the production of glucose or energy sources like ATP.
Carbohydrates, such as sugars and starches, are a common substance that provide energy for the body when broken down through metabolism.
Urea results from the metabolism of protein in the liver. Amino acids are broken down during protein metabolism, and the waste product urea is formed as a way to eliminate excess nitrogen from the body.
The starting substance of the Krebs Cycle is acetyl-CoA, which is formed from the breakdown of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in the form of pyruvate.
Water formed from metabolism primarily comes from the breakdown of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins during cellular respiration. Oxygen is used in the process to generate energy, and water is a byproduct as hydrogen atoms are combined with oxygen atoms to form water molecules.
