Solution

The correct option is A Faeces
Metabolic wastes are substances left over from a metabolic process which cannot be used by the organisms and must, therefore, be excreted. This includes nitrogen compounds. The nitrogen compounds through which excess nitrogen is eliminated from the organism are called nitrogenous wastes. They are ammonia, urea, uric acid, and creatinine.
So the correct option is feaces.
