Detailed explanation-1: -Human urine is composed primarily of water (95%). The rest is urea (2%), creatinine (0.1%), uric acid (0.03%), chloride, sodium, potassium, sulphate, ammonium, phosphate and other ions and molecules in lesser amounts30 (Table 1). Protein is only found in trace amounts compared to their values in blood plasma.
Detailed explanation-2: -Urine is about 95% water and 5% waste products. Nitrogenous wastes excreted in urine include urea, creatinine, ammonia, and uric acid. Ions such as sodium, potassium, hydrogen, and calcium are also excreted.
Detailed explanation-3: -The urine consists of 95% of water, 2.5% of urea and 2.5% other waste products.
Detailed explanation-4: -The process of excretion is called urination and it is excreted through the urethra. Urine primarily consists of water (95%), including organic solute like urea (2.5%), and other wastes (2.5%) such as enzymes, hormones, fatty acids etc. Hence the statement is incorrect.
Detailed explanation-5: -Urine is a liquid waste material produced in and excreted by the body. Secreted by the renal tubules, it accumulates in the urinary bladder and is excreted via the urethra. While it is composed of 91 to 96 percent water, it contains many other components, both solid and liquid.
