Solution
The correct option is B Urea
A man has taken large amount of protein in his diet. He will excrete more of urea. The proteins in the diet undergoes deamination. During deamination the amino group is removed from the amino acid and converted to ammonia by urea cycle. The carbon and hydrogen is recycled to form energy. The urea formed in liver is transported to kidney through circulation and finally gets excreted. It also excretes the uric acid but in minimal quantity. So, the correct answer is 'urea'.
