Normal balance. In accounting, the normal balance of an account is the preferred type of net balance that it should have. Any particular account contains debit and credit entries. The account's net balance is the difference between the total of the debits and the total of the credits. This can be a net debit balance when the total debits are ...
In photography and image processing, color balance is the global adjustment of the intensities of the colors (typically red, green, and blue primary colors ). An important goal of this adjustment is to render specific colors – particularly neutral colors like white or grey – correctly. Hence, the general method is sometimes called gray ...
The core principle of fluid balance is that the amount of water lost from the body must equal the amount of water taken in; for example, in humans, the output (via respiration, perspiration, urination, defecation, and expectoration) must equal the input (via eating and drinking, or by parenteral intake). Euvolemia is the state of normal body ...
Leptin (from Greek λεπτός leptos, "thin" or "light" or "small"), also known as obese protein[ 6], is a protein hormone predominantly made by adipocytes (cells of adipose tissue ). Its primary role is likely to regulate long-term energy balance. [ 7]
The normal processes by which life self-regulates its biochemistry (homeostasis) produce fluid balance across the fluid compartments. Water and electrolytes are continuously moving across barriers (eg, cell membranes, vessel walls), albeit often in small amounts, to maintain this healthy balance. The movement of these molecules is controlled ...
A trial balance is an internal financial statement that lists the adjusted closing balances of all the general ledger accounts (both revenue and capital) contained in the ledger of a business as at a specific date.

Standard normal table. In statistics, a standard normal table, also called the unit normal table or Z table, [ 1] is a mathematical table for the values of Φ, the cumulative distribution function of the normal distribution. It is used to find the probability that a statistic is observed below, above, or between values on the standard normal ...
Balance (ability) Balance in biomechanics, is an ability to maintain the line of gravity (vertical line from centre of mass) of a body within the base of support with minimal postural sway. [ 1] Sway is the horizontal movement of the centre of gravity even when a person is standing still. A certain amount of sway is essential and inevitable due ...
