Hi Ishika

The correct option is 4) Both 1&2

Explanation

In deamination , the removal of an amine group  takes place from a molecule. In our human body, deamination majorly takes place in the liver, however glutamate is  deaminated in the kidneys as well . So, deamination takes place in both kidney and liver

Thankyou
