The correct answer is:
$\mathrm{CO}_2$ and $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
$\mathrm{CO}_2$ and $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
Human lungs remove large amounts of $\mathrm{CO}_2(18 \mathrm{~L} /$ day) and also siginificant amount of water everyday. While respiration, $\mathrm{CO}_2$ alone cannot be eliminated from the body and the same holds true for $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$. Ammonia is highly toxic, and thus it is immediately converted to nontoxic form.
