Which blood vessel contains the lowest concentration of Urea?

Solution

Blood vessel:
Blood vessels are systems of interconnected hollow pipes that transport plasma to and from every body part.
These blood vessels transport blood in two directions, from the heart to every other part of the body and the other one from every portion of the body to the heart.
Renal Vein:
The Renal Vein is the blood vessel with the lowest urea concentration.
Because urea is excreted through the kidneys, the main artery that drains the blood, the renal vein, contains the lowest concentration of urea.
Renal veins transport purified blood from the kidneys to the vena cava posterior.
The aorta sends unfiltered blood to the kidneys via the renal arteries.
