Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Urea is made when foods containing protein (such as meat, poultry, and certain vegetables) are broken down in the body. Urea is carried in the blood to the kidneys. This is where it is removed, along with water and other wastes in the form of urine.

Detailed explanation-2: -The kidney and urinary systems help the body to eliminate liquid waste called urea, and to keep chemicals, such as potassium and sodium, and water in balance. Urea is produced when foods containing protein, such as meat, poultry, and certain vegetables, are broken down in the body.

Detailed explanation-3: -Urea is produced as a waste product by the breakdown of unused proteins in the liver. Our bodies must eliminate these waste materials because their accumulation is poisonous and harmful to us. In the form of urine, our kidneys excrete urea, waste salts, and excess water from the blood (a yellowish liquid).

Detailed explanation-4: -Urea is a waste product that is excreted by the kidneys when you urinate. The urine urea nitrogen test determines how much urea is in the urine to assess the amount of protein breakdown. The test can help determine how well the kidneys are functioning and whether your intake of protein is too high or low.
