Answer:
Explanation:
The conversion of ammonia to urea is essential because ammonia is more toxic for our body as
compared to urea. Other than that, ammonia is volatile and leaks through the body cells and
vessels. On the contrary, urea is less volatile and it is easier for the body to accumulate it and excrete
it through special channels.
