Where in the roots of the legumes does Nitrogen-fixing bacteria live?
The nitrogen-fixing bacteria live in the root nodules of legumes.
Where do most Nitrogen Fixation bacteria live?
Legumes have nirtifying bacteria in their roots, but mostly they are found in the soil.
What processes in the nitrogen are complete by bacteria?
It is nitrogen fixation, which occurs by nitrogen-fixing bacteria that live in the root nodules of legumes and in the soil..
What processes in the nitrogen cycle are completed by bacteria?
It is nitrogen fixation, which occurs by nitrogen-fixing bacteria that live in the root nodules of legumes and in the soil..
What type of bacteria is found in legumes?
Special class of bacteria called Rhizomes live on the roots of leguminus plants. They take free nitrate and nitrites from the environment and change to a form that can be readily used by plants. Relationship between nitrogen fixing bacteria and plants is called Symbiosis.
What is converted into usable form by bacteria in the root nodules of legumes?
nitrogen-fixing bacteria
Nitrogen fixing bacteria live symbiotically in what?
they live in the roots of beans and peanuts- jeff chandler
Bacteria in soil change this to a form that can used by plants is what?
Nitrogen gas (N2) is converted by nitrogen-fixing bacteria that live in the root nodules of Legumes into NH3.
Where can nitrogen fixing bacteria be found?
In root nodules of lupins and other legumes.
Where can nitrogen-fixing bacteria be found?
In root nodules of lupins and other legumes.
Where do nitrogen fixing bacteria that have a symbiotic relationship with legumes live?
Legume plants are notable for their ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen, thanks to a symbiotic relationship with certain bacteria known as rhizobia found in root nodules of these plants. The ability to form this symbiosis reduces fertilizer costs for farmers and gardeners who grow legumes, and allows legumes to be used in a crop rotation to replenish soil that has been depleted of nitrogen. The nitrogen fixation ability of legumes is enhanced by the availability of calcium in the soil and reduced by the presence of ample nitrogen. Root nodules. via Wikipedia
What two groups of bacteria responsible for nitrogen fixation are found in what and in the root of?
Soil and legumes!
