Solution

The correct option is C Liver
  • The proteins in the body are broken down to amino groups that are converted to ammonia.
  • Liver is the largest gland in the body. This organ is involved in the conversion of the nitrogenous waste product ammonia into urea by the urea cycle also called the ornithine cycle.
    Thus the correct answer is option C.
