Where do humans obtain nitrogen from for their biological processes?

Humans obtain nitrogen for their biological processes primarily from the proteins in their diet. These proteins are broken down in the digestive system into amino acids, which contain nitrogen that is used by the body for various functions.

How do human get nitrogen in their diet?

from the proteins they eat.proteins are nitrogenous compounds which are found in large quantities in flesh of animals and pulses.the ultimate sourse of nitrogen is atmosphere.certain bacteria fix this nitrogen into the soil from where plants take it and utilise it to make protiens and it is subsequently eaten by animals and then humans.

Can humans breathe nitrogen safely?

No, humans cannot breathe nitrogen safely as it does not provide the necessary oxygen for respiration. Breathing pure nitrogen can lead to asphyxiation and suffocation.


What are forms of nitrogen that are unable by humans?

Nitrogen gas (N2) in our atmosphere is an example of a form of nitrogen that humans cannot directly use. Additionally, nitrate (NO3-) in soils is not directly usable by humans and must first be converted by plants into a more bioavailable form of nitrogen.


Do humans need nitrogen to breathe for survival?

No, humans do not need nitrogen to breathe for survival. The air we breathe is primarily made up of oxygen, with only a small amount of nitrogen.


Is it possible for humans to breathe nitrogen?

No, it is not possible for humans to breathe nitrogen as our bodies require oxygen to survive. Nitrogen makes up about 78 of the air we breathe, but it is inert and does not support respiration.


How many grams of nitrogen are contained in 2500 kcal diet that provides 15 percent of the energy as protein?

To calculate the amount of nitrogen in a diet, you typically assume that 16% of protein is nitrogen. In this case, if 15% of the energy in the diet comes from protein, you can calculate the total protein in the diet (2500 kcal * 0.15 = 375 kcal from protein). Then, convert this to grams of protein using the fact that protein provides 4 kcal/g. Finally, since protein is about 16% nitrogen, you can calculate the total grams of nitrogen in the diet.
