Solution

The correct option is B Urea
The end product of protein metabolism (transamination and deamination) is ammonia. This ammonia is toxic to the body, so it is detoxified in the liver of the animals and converted into urea (by the orrithine cycle), which is then excreted in the urine. Thus, the correct answer is option A.
