In living beings ammonia is converted into urea throughA. ornithine cycleB. citrulline cycleC. fumarine cycleD. arginine cycle

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Ornithine combines with one molecule of `NH_(3)andCO_(2)` to produce citrulline. Citrulline combines with another molecule of `NH_(3)` to form arginine. Arginnine is broken down into urea and ornithine which repeats the cycle. This is called Ornithine cycle or urea cycle of Krebs-Henseleit cycle.
