The Urea Cycle: Nitrogen Metabolism and Waste Excretion

Classified in Biology

Written on in English with a size of 2.04 KB

The urea cycle, also known as the ornithine cycle, is a critical metabolic pathway that primarily occurs in the liver, and to a lesser extent, in the kidneys. Its main function is to convert excess nitrogen from protein and amino acid breakdown into urea, a less toxic compound than ammonia, for safe excretion in urine.

Steps in the Urea Cycle

The urea cycle involves several enzymatic reactions within the mitochondria and cytoplasm of liver cells. Key molecules include ammonia, carbon dioxide, ornithine, citrulline, argininosuccinate, and arginine.

Arteries take blood away from the heart, veins take it towards the heart, Pulmonary means lungs. Valves make sure blood flows in a one way direction. Blood goes from heart to lungs to be oxygenated via the pulmonary artery. The now oxygenated blood goes back to the heart via the pulmonary vein to be pumped around the body via the aorta. Once the blood has been round the body, it is pumped to the heart via the vena cava to be sent to the lungs again for oxygenation then the cycle repeats.
