Detailed Solution

Starving is a phenomenon in which the person does not intake any solid food material. This can be done for the detoxification of the body, but prolonged fasting can lead to a lot of health issues and lower the energy levels.

A person who has been fasting for a prolonged period of time will have a lesser amount of urea in their urine. This is because urea is an organic compound which is formed as a waste product when the body metabolizes the protein intake. Urea formation takes place in the liver when it is produced by the breakdown of proteins into amino acids. It is then transferred to the kidneys. If the person will be taking in less or no protein, then the formation of urea would also decrease.

Hence the correct option is B.
