this is called deamination
Not really. The excess amino acids are broken down to release the amine part which becomes ammonia. This ammonia combines with CO2 to form urea.
They are broken down into urea then carried via blood to the kidneys and the excreted as urine
Amino acids inside liver cells can be used for protein synthesis, energy production, or converted into other molecules. Excess amino acids can be converted into glucose or fatty acids for storage. The liver also plays a role in converting toxic by-products of amino acid metabolism into less harmful substances that can be excreted.
Nitrogen in amino acids is converted to ammonia through a process called deamination. Ammonia is then converted to urea in the liver and excreted in the urine. This process helps to eliminate excess nitrogen from the body.
Excess amino acids are broken down into urea primarily through the process of deamination, which occurs in the liver. During deamination, the amino group is removed from the amino acids, resulting in the formation of ammonia, which is then converted into urea through the urea cycle. This urea is subsequently excreted from the body via the kidneys in urine.

Protein catabolism is the breakdown of the proteins into the amino acids which are the basic constituents of the protein. In digestion process the proteins get converted into amino acids and used for the repair and building process of cells. The excess of amino acid get converted into fat and sugar and get stored into liver. Due to illness or prolonged starvation when the body does not get adequate energy, this excess of amino acid in the form of fats or sugar get breakdown and provides energy.
Yes it does

Deamination occurs. An amine group is removed from the amino acids, making ammonia. This ammonia is then converted to urea in the ornithine cycle. Search for 'deamination' on Wikipedia. That should cover it :)
The Liver.
storge
Yes there is.
liver. Urea comes from the breakdown of proteins ultimately. But there are lots of conversions along the way between amino acids. Ammonia is one of the nitrogen donors to make urea
Through researching this question i have found out that the stomach absorbs proteins which are made up of amino acids. After the stomach amino acids are then absorbed by the duodenum ( a buffer for acids in the stomach in small intestine, called sodium bicarbonate).
