The kidneys remove urea from the blood and excrete it in urine. Urea is a waste product formed from the breakdown of proteins in the liver.
No, urease and urea are not the same thing. Urease is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea into ammonia and carbon dioxide, while urea is a waste product produced in the liver as a result of protein metabolism.
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.
A living thing that produces another living thing like itself is called a parent.
An automobile is a non-living thing that produces wastes in the form of exhaust.
The kidneys remove urea from the blood and excrete it in urine. Urea is a waste product formed from the breakdown of proteins in the liver.
1 metric ton of natural gas typically produces approximately 0.65 to 0.7 metric tons of urea.

carbon dioxide
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.

The Kidneys, where the blood/urea thing takes place.
In addition to urea, the liver produces bilirubin as a result of the recycling of red blood cells. The bilirubin is excreted through bile.
"Kidneys" ^ this is incorrect. Urea is a byproduct of protein metabolism. In the GI, blood proteins are broken down into ammonia, it is then absorbed and the liver then converts it to Urea. It is then released into the blood stream where the Kidney's take it up and eliminate it. Urea is then eliminated by the kidney's, but not produced by it. its synthesized during the metabolic activity of the body. and is purified form the body in kidnies. ^so basically, liver makes urea not the kidneys
No, urea is a byproduct of protein metabolism, specifically the breakdown of amino acids. Fatty acid metabolism primarily produces acetyl-CoA, which enters the citric acid cycle for energy production.
Urea serves an important role in the metabolism of nitrogen-containing compounds by animals and is the main nitrogen-containing substance in the urine of mammals.
The Kidney produces urea from amino groups and ammonia. :] The urea [Urine] than travels to the bladder where it is than expelled through the urethra.
