Solution

The correct option is A Urochrome
  • Urochrome is the yellow pigment responsible for the characteristics of urine color.
  • This pigment is produced by the breakdown of red blood cells in the liver.
  • Hence it is a product of hemoglobin metabolism eliminated through urine.
Thus the correct answer is option C.
