Plants use nitrogen to make?
Many compounds in plants include Nitrogen including Proteins and DNA. Note, most plants can not use atmospheric Nitrogen (N2), and must absorb nitrogen that is bonded to hydrogen or carbon such as Ammonia (NH3).
How do rhizobacteria help plants?
Plants can not use atmospheric nitrogen. Rhizobacteria fixes atmospheric nitrogen into nitrate.plant can utilize nitrate in their metabolism.thus fertility of the soil is maintained.
What is the proces of changing atmospheric nitrogen into forms that plants can use?
Nitrification
In what form do plants use nitrogen so they can make protein?
Plants can not absorb atmospheric elemental Nitrogen (N2). The nitrogen must be bound to carbon or hydrogen atoms such as ammonia (NH3), or Urea (NH2)2CO. Nitrogen Fixing Plants such as clover have a symbiotic relationship with bacteria on their root system that convert atmospheric nitrogen (N2) to forms that the plants can use.
How do humans use nitrogen?
Humans use nitrogen in the form of proteins. Bacteria found in soil convert atmospheric nitrogen into nitrates that plants use to produce proteins.
What lives in the roots of leguminous plants and convert atmospheric nitrogen into plants unable form?
Rhizoobium or nitrogen fixing bacteria lives in the roots of leguminous plants.leguminous plants are not able to use atmospheric nitrogen as sush,so these bacteria convert nitrogen into simpler forms i.e nitrates and nitrits which are easily used up by these plants.
Why are most oranisims incapable of using atmospheric nitrogen?
Use it for what?
What process effectively makes nitrogen unavailable for plant use?
The reduction of nitrate to gaseous nitrogen. Most plants cannot use atmospheric(gaseous) nitrogen. It must be "fixed" by bacteria in the ground. Plants use nitrogen in the forms of ammonia(NH4+) and nitrate ions(NO3-). source: http://ohioline.osu.edu/aex-fact/0463.html
Why are nitrogen-fixing bacteria important to plants?
nitrogen fixing bacteria fix or attach atmospheric nitrogen in soil or make it easily avialable to the plants as plants need nitrogen as one of their macronutrient element for their growth.
What must happen for plants to use nitrogen in the atmosphere?
Fixation
What are two ways that nitrogen is fixed so plants can use it?
The only forms of nitrogen compounds that living things can make use of are ammonia compounds and nitrate compounds.These are called "fixed nitrogen". Animals obtain the nitrogen they need from proteins in the plants and/or animals they eat. Proteins are amino acid polymers and amino acids are built around an ammonia group.
What is industrial fixation?
Industrial fixation is a synthetic method of converting atmospheric nitrogen to nitrogen oxides or ammonium ions that plants and other organisms are able to use
