Correct Answer: Birds


Solution : The correct option is Birds

Uric acid is the principal nitrogenous waste product in birds. Birds have evolved a unique method of excreting nitrogenous waste that aids in water conservation, which is critical for their survival in arid areas. Uric acid is a chemical compound created as a waste product by the body when purines, which are chemicals found in some diets and naturally in the body's cells, are broken down.
