To determine:

The reason for the increment of urea level of the blood during the postabsorptive state.

Introduction:

Urea is harmful for our body and so is ammonia. They are formed during the deamination and the transamination process by which protein degradation and new protein formation takes place. They are released during the postabsorptive state. It is the state of the digestive tract in which in which it is empty in order to obtain energy that is stored and the breakdown of reserve food materials also takes place for the same purpose. It continues for four hours after every meal. They cause fatigueness, nausea, pain in the bones, shortness of breath and seizures they also cause anorexia, and lethargy also.
