We get nitrogen in a usable form from our food.
nitrogen fixation
I believe ground state menas in its noble gas form therefor all elements in period 2 such as nitrogen have a ground state of He
Nitrogen is not a compound, it is an element. Nitrogen is found in many compounds, including all proteins.
Nitrogen gas is found in the air. It is the most abundant gas there, comprising about 4/5 of the air.
Converting free nitrogen into a usable form ( a compound) is called nitrogen fixation.

Because the nitrogen in the air is in a form not usable to animals and plants. The only way animals get nitrogen to build protein and nucleic acid is by eating it. This is usually through plants, which get there nitrogen from the soil. They get it from the soil cuz bacteria in the soil turn the atmospheric nitrogen into a usable form. In a water ecosystem cyanobacteria a.k.a. blue-green algae transform the nitrogen from the atmosphere into usable forms of nitrate
