1. Choose one (1) nonprotein nitrogen compound
2. Draw an illustration that shows the generation, metabolism, and excretion of the chosen NPN.
3. The illustration should be as detailed as possible (include how much is being absorbed, excreted, and the like).
1. The end product of protein metabolism is often ammonia, a base. What effect will this have on pH, will it go up or down? _________________________________________
2. Another common end product, pyruvic acid. Into which metabolic pathway will the body use pyruvic acid as a substrate to produce ATP?
