A balanced diet contains all the ingredients needed to maintain homeostasis. many important compounds in the body contain nitrog

en atoms (n compounds), including amino acids, the bases of rna and dna, creatine, and porphyrins. despite the importance of nitrogen, the body neither stores nitrogen nor maintains reserves of n compounds. the body can synthesize the carbon chains of the n compounds but must obtain nitrogen atoms either by recycling n compounds or by absorbing nitrogen from the diet. pregnant or lactating women like justine actively synthesize n compounds. when an individual absorbs more nitrogen than he or she excretes, he or she is said to be in what state

He or she is said to be in a positive nitrogen balance state.

Nitrogen balance is the traditional method of determining dietary protein requirements. Determining dietary protein requirements using nitrogen balance requires that all nitrogen inputs and losses are carefully collected, to ensure that all nitrogen exchange is accounted for. Positive nitrogen balance is associated with periods of growth, hypothyroidism, tissue repair, and pregnancy. This means that the intake of nitrogen into the body is greater than the loss of nitrogen from the body, so there is an increase in the total body pool of protein.

In _______ a population isolated by a geographic barrier becomes a new species as it accumulates changes by natural selection or
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is allopatric speciation.

Explanation:

Allopatric speciation occurs when a geographical barrier comes between a species population living in the same area. This geographical barrier separates the population into two different geographical area which do not have the same condition.

So as both the separated population get different habitat environment to live so they evolve differently from each other. So natural selection and genetic drift works differently in both the population which brings genetic changes in the population and helps in creating a new species.

What type of cell helps to stimulate b cells to produce antibodies?
valentinak56 [21]
The correct answer is helper T cells.
<span>The helper T cells are one of the main cells of the adaptive immune system. Their role is to help the activity of other immune cells by releasing T cell cytokines and they are required for almost all adaptive immune responses. The helper T cells activate B cells to secrete antibodies, stimulate macrophages to destroy ingested pathogens, and help in activation of cytotoxic T cells to kill infected target cells.</span>
