Why did God put ammonia in your body?

Our bodies use it to facilitate the synthesis of amino acids.


What is the organ that produces urea in our body?

The liver produces urea when it metabolises (breaks down) proteins. This is done in hepatocytes (liver cells). Amino acids are first broken down into ammonia, which is highly soluble and toxic in the blood plasma, so ammonia is joined with carbon dioxide to make urea, this is less soluble and less toxic but a build up of urea is toxic in the blood. Urea is then transported in the blood to be filtered out by the kidneys.


Which thing produces urea?

Urea is primarily produced in the liver as a waste product of protein metabolism. It is formed through the urea cycle, which converts ammonia, a toxic byproduct of amino acid breakdown, into urea, allowing for safe excretion through urine. Additionally, some urea is produced in other tissues, but the liver is the main site of its synthesis.


What organs make urea?

All cells make urea, it is a waste product. The urea is processed by the kidneys (reabsorbing most of the water) then transfered by the ureters to the urinary bladder.


Function of urea in synthesis of chromium acac complex?

Urea acts as a ligand in the synthesis of chromium acetylacetonate (acac) complex by coordinating to the chromium ion. It helps to stabilize the complex by forming bonds with the chromium center, thereby influencing the geometry and properties of the resulting complex. Urea also assists in controlling the reaction conditions and promoting the formation of the desired chromium acac complex.
