amino acids
glucose
ADH controls water permeability of
collecting tube
proximal convoluted tubules
distal convoluted tubules
all of the above
Which of the following amino acids are present in ornithine cycle
Valine and cystine
Arginine and citrulline
Glycine and methionine
None of these
B.
Arginine and citrulline
Ornithine cycle takes place in liver. The amino acid arginine and citrulline are formed during this cycle. Therefore it is referred as ornithine, arginine cycle and also Kreb-Henseleit cycle. The products of this cycle are urea and ornithine. The substances excreted through this cycle are CO2 and NH2
In living beings ammonia is converted into urea through
ornithine cycle
citrulline cycle
fumarine cycle
arginine cycle
Which part of the nephron is impermeable to water
Proximal convoluted tubule
Distal convoluted tubule
Ascending limb of loop of Henle
Descending limb of loop of Henle
The ornithine cycle removes two waste products from the blood in liver. These products are
CO2 and urea
ammonia and urea
CO2 and ammonia
ammonia and uric acid
