Deamination is a process that occurs in the liver that removes the nitrogen-containing portions (-NH2 groups) from the amino acids. These -NH2 groups subsequently react to form a waste called urea. The liver therefore produces urea from amino groups formed by deamination of amino acids. The blood carries urea to the kidneys, where it is excreted in urine.

What has the author Henry Swain Simms written?

What kind of relation exist between fatty acid and amino acid synthesis?
The liver combines fatty acids and amino acids into lipoproteins, which can be easily used by the various cells of the body.
What are triglycerides and what kind of fatty acid is this?
Triglycerides are a type of fatty acid that aid in the bodily processes of the liver. They are composed of one glycerol and three fatty acids, hence the name, tri-glycerides.
Why are fatty acids not excreted in urine?
Fatty acids are converted into acetyl-CoA through beta-oxidation in the liver before being further metabolized to produce energy. Since they are broken down and utilized for energy production, fatty acids are not typically excreted in urine. Instead, any excess fatty acids are stored as triglycerides in adipose tissue for later use.
How many types of fatty acids are found in human body?
There are two main types of fatty acids found in the human body: saturated fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids. Unsaturated fatty acids can be further classified into monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids.
What means fatty infiltration of liver and what is it's treatment and what is the difference between fatty infiltration of liver and fatty liver?
the liver shows increased echogenicity compatible with fatty ifiltration.
Distinguish between saturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids?
There is no difference between saturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids. If you meant saturated fatty acids and UNsaturated fatty acids, then the unsaturated ones are the ones with double (or, theoretically, triple) bonds in the carbon chain.
Unsaturated fatty acids that have changed to saturated fatty acids are called?
Hydrogenated fatty acids.
What are unsaturated fatty acids?
Unsaturated fatty acids are fatty acids that have double bonds in their long carbon chains.
Name the vitamin present in cod liver oil?
Vitamins A and D and Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids.
what Are liver synthesized derivatives of free fatty acids that can be used as an immediate source of energy by many organs?
Ketone bodies.
Are fatty acids polar or nonpolar?
Fatty acids are nonpolar.
