In which environment are you most likely to find animals that employ uric acid as their primary form of nitrogenous waste?

Nitrogenous waste of the body are excreted by organisms of different species differently. Others, such as the mammals excrete it in a form of urea while other in a form of ammonia. Still others, excretes it in a form of uric acid. The latter group of organisms being referred to are the BIRDS and REPTILES. 

This organisms found to excrete the nitrogen as urea are called as uricothelic organisms and excrete white powder or paste. The process of conversion of ammonia to uric acid needs a lot of energy or energy intensive, however; it is less toxic and reduces need for water. 

Proteins are the workhorses of the cell, controlling virtually every reaction within as well as providing structure and serving as signals to other cells. proteins are long chains of  amino acids  , and the exact sequence of the amino acids determines the final structure and function of the protein. instructions for that sequence are encoded in  genes  . to make a particular protein, a messenger ribonucleic acid (mrna) copy is made from the gene (in the process called  transcription  ), and the mrna is transported to the  ribosome  . protein synthesis, also called  translation  , begins when the two ribosomal subunits link onto the mrna. this step, called initiation, is followed by elongation, in which successive amino acids are added to the growing chain, brought in by transfer rnas (trnas). in this step, the ribosome reads the  nucleotides  of mrna three by three, in units called  codons  , and matches each to three nucleotides on the trna, called the anticodon. finally, during termination, the ribosome unbinds from the mrna, and the  amino acid  chain goes on to be processed and folded to make the final, functional protein
