What else can I help you with?
How will the removal of leguminous plants affect the nitrogen cycle?
it affects the nitrogen cycle as the leguminous plants have nitrogen-fixing bacteria on their roots and these nitrogen-fixing bacteria help to collect nitrogen which is transferred to animals when these leguminous plants have been eaten.
What is largest source of nitrogen?
Nitrogen is the most abundant element in the Earth's atmosphere. Bacteria in the soil 'fix' the nitrogen gas into compounds which can be taken in by plants; the plants get eaten by animals & they use the nitrogen to make proteins.
How do plants and animals differ in the ways they obtain nitrogen?
Plants get it from bacteria which live associated with their roots who take atmospheric nitrogen and fixate it (nitrogen cycle). Animals can only get it by ingesting organic compounds which contain nitrogen, such as plants and other animals which have eaten plants.
What type of organism is able to covert free nitrogen from the atmosphere to form that is usable for animals?
Nitrogen fixing bacteria will enable some plants to convert atmospheric oxygen to a form that can be used by plants. The plants are then eaten by animals.
Describe the path of nitrogen through its biogeochemical cycle?
Nitrogen gas in the soil is used by plants, which are eaten by animals. The waste products of the animals contain the nitrogen. It is broken down by bacteria, which releases nitrogen gas into the atmosphere, and the cycle repeats.
What is the diffrence between fixed nitrogen and free nitrogen?
OK well free nitrogen is fixed by bacteria that live in the soil. some bacteria live in nodules, or bumps , on certain plant roots. the bacteria get food from the plants, and plants absorb fixed nitrogen from the bacteria. animals get nitrogen by eating plants or by eating prey that have eaten plants. fixed nitrogen may enter the soil in other ways too. a small amount of free nitrogen in the air by lighting. it is carried to the ground by rainfall. fixed nitrogen also enters the soil because of decomposers. decomposers break down dead organisms, and fixed nitrogen is released in the soil. the fixed nitrogen can be absorbed by plant roots.
How do human get nitrogen in their diet?
from the proteins they eat.proteins are nitrogenous compounds which are found in large quantities in flesh of animals and pulses.the ultimate sourse of nitrogen is atmosphere.certain bacteria fix this nitrogen into the soil from where plants take it and utilise it to make protiens and it is subsequently eaten by animals and then humans.
What is the difference between you had eaten and you have eaten?
HAVE eaten is correct where as HAD eaten is not.
What is the movement of nitrogen through the ecosystem?
The nitrogen cycle is the process by which nitrogen is converted between its various chemical forms. This transformation can be carried out via both biological and non-biological processes.Nitogen fixing bacteria takes nitrogen from the air and make it available to plants.The plants take up the nitrogen and are eaten by animals.Animals use nitrogen to make proteins.Animals die and decompose, the nitrogen goes back into the soil.Denitrifiying bacteria put the nitrogen back into the atmosphere.
How are matter and nutrients cycled back into the ecosystem from which they came from?
Saprobiants (or to you and me microbes) many different types do different things, but basically they brake down the larger chains normally into the soil, they're then taken up by plants which are eaten by primary consumers and the chain goes on! example of a few are nitrogen fixing bacteria in the nitrogen cycle.
Is the word eaten a verb?
To have 'eaten' is the past participle of the verb to eat. Eaten needs the auxiliary verb to have.Have you eaten? Yes, I have eaten.
What are some substances in nitrogen?
Nitrogen is a gaseous element, that is, what is in nitrogen is nitrogen.
