Which gas is changed into a useful form for the plants by the bacteria in the soil?
Nitrogen
What type of organism is primarily responsible for the conversion of nitrogen into a useable form?
Bacteria
What organisms convert nitrogen into a form that is by humans?
Bacteria Ammonia, nitrates, nitrites
What organisms are capable of converting gaseous nitrogen in the air into a form that other living organisms can use?
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria
In the nitrogen cycle bacteria combine nitrogen gas with hydrogen to form ammonia in a process?
You think probable to bacterial conversion.
Bacteria in root nodules change nitrogen gas into what form?
ammonia
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.
What is converted into usable form by bacteria in the root nodules of legumes?
nitrogen-fixing bacteria
How do nitrogen fixing bacteria on root nodules function in the nitrogen cycle?
Although the air is made up of about 70% nitrogen, plants cannot use nitrogen in this N2 form. Nitrogen fixing bacteria change nitrogen into the form of soluble nitrates so that plants can use it. Other bacteria, known as de-nitrifying bacteria, change nitrates back into N2, which completes the nitrogen cycle. Some nitrifying bacteria lives in the roots of legumes, and do the same job.
What do clovers do to help the ecosystem?
They are plants that live with symbiotic bacteria in their roots which form nodules that fix nitrogen.
What converts nitrogen in the air to help form plants?
Plants called legumes. Actually it is the bacteria that reside in nodules contained in the legume's roots that perform the 'nitrogen fixation' biochemical process.
Where do bacteria fix nitrogen gas?
Bacteria fix nitrogen by taking the nitrogen in the air and turning it into a type of nitrogen that can be used by other organisms. This usually occurs in the form of ammonium.
Which organisms convert nitrogen into a form that is usable by humans?
Bacteria =========================== Specifically a particular type of bacteria that live in nodules on the roots of certain plants (eg the Legume family) called "Nitrogen Fixing Bacteria" . Not other bacteria decompose organic material and release nitrogen back into the atmosphere.
How does bacteria benefit plants?
Nitrogen fixing bacteria are important for plants as they can convert Nitrogen from the air into Nitrates in the soil which the plant can then use. Legumes have nodules on their roots to provide a suitable habitat for them.
What does certain bacteria that live on the roots of plants provide for the plant?
I think you are thinking of nitrogen fixing bacteria which are associated with nodules on the roots of plants belonging to the legume family (peas and beans). The bacteria that form and live in these nodules have the ability to take nitrogen form the air and use it to build organic molecules directly. This is important because all life needs a small amount of nitrogen (in organic forms) to build proteins.
What converts nitrogen from a form that can be assimilated by plants to N2.?
it is bacteria and lightening or decomposers, not sure. I am doing the same biology homework crap that Ms. elliot signed to all the students over break. i am looking for the same answer i think decomposers is the answer. its the one that makes most sense. :D
Where do most Nitrogen Fixation bacteria live?
Legumes have nirtifying bacteria in their roots, but mostly they are found in the soil.
