Trees do contain nitrogen because they contain protein (the density of protein in plants is less than in animals, but plants still need some protein to carry out their various biochemical processes).

∙ 9y agoYes, plants do store nitrogen. Plants have the ability to take up several chemical forms of nitrogen, and absorb it from the soil.

How is notrogen fixation a necessary part of the nitrogen cycle?
Plants use nitrogen a N- and air has N2. Nitrogen fixation changes nitrogen into a form that plants can use.
What is the relationship between bacteria and plants?
Plants need nitrogen to grow. They are surrounded by nitrogen in the air, but it is not in a form the plants can use. Nitrogen fixing bacteria on the roots of the plant convert (fix) the airborne nitrogen to a form the plants can use to grow.
Can animals use nitrogen directly from the atmosphere?
no plants and animals cannot use nitrogen straight out of the air every time we take a breath you breath it in but it goes through nitrogen fixation to let us humans animals and plants to use it.
Does bacteria convert nitrogen from the air into a form plants can use?
Nitrogen-Fixing bacteria. aka Rhizobium
Type of bacteria that consume nitrogen in the air and change into a form plants can use?
It's nitrogen fission of course

What converts nitrogen into air plants can use?
Plant can not use nitrogen "air" (gas), it must be "fixed" , a nitrous compound.
Is it true although 78 percent of air is nitrogen plants cannot use this form well?
It is very close to it, being about 78.09%.
What can convert nitrogen in the air into a form plants can use?
Nitrogen fixing bacteria along and on the roots of plants converts gaseous nitrogen into a form that plants can absorb.
What is the relationship between bacteria and plants?
Plants need nitrogen to grow. They are surrounded by nitrogen in the air, but it is not in a form the plants can use. Nitrogen fixing bacteria on the roots of the plant convert (fix) the airborne nitrogen to a form the plants can use to grow.
Which converts nitrogen from air into a form plants use?
mycorrhizae
Even though considerable nitrogen is available in the air most plants do not use the nitrogen in the air why not?
Because they don't want to.
Type of bacteria that consume nitrogen in the air and change it into a form plants can use?
nitrogen fission
When there is not enough nitrogen in the atmosphere for plants how do the plants get it?
Plants do not actually get their nitrogen from the atmosphere. They get it in compounds in the soil through their roots. Some plants form symbiotic relationships with bacteria in the soil. The bacteria draw nitrogen from the air and form nitrogen compounds. The plants can then use the nitrogen.
What does Rhizobium radicicola help plants use from the air?
Fixes nitrogen
Can animals use nitrogen directly from the atmosphere?
