    Question

    In human beings, excretory products in the form of soluble nitrogen compounds are removed by the _______ in the kidneys.

    A.

    nucleus

    B.

    nutrition

    C.

    mitochondria

    D.

    nephrons

    Correct option is D

    Correct Answer: (d) Nephrons
    Explanation:
    · Nephrons are the structural and functional units of the kidneys that filter blood and remove excretory products in the form of soluble nitrogen compounds like urea, creatinine, and ammonia.
    · Each kidney contains millions of nephrons, which work to maintain the body’s fluid and electrolyte balance.
    Other Options:
    · Nucleus: The nucleus is the control center of a cell and is not involved in excretion.
    · Nutrition: Nutrition refers to the process of obtaining and utilizing nutrients, unrelated to excretion.
    · Mitochondria: Mitochondria are responsible for cellular respiration and energy production, not excretory processes.
