I believe not because they are living things and need oxygen instead or they only need something to live in to reproduce and live.
animals dont really need nitrogen but for plants, they need nitrogen and they get nitrogen usually in the form of nitrates or bacteria protein, by the work of nitrifying bacteria, putrefying bacteria and nitrogen fixing bacteria
Bacteria are extremely simple organisms. Most bacteria are a single cell, and are supported perfectly by sunlight alone. Some kinds of bacteria can live deep underwater, or encased in thousands of tons of rock. Some can even live in space. Overall bacteria do not need oxygen/nitrogen for any reason, because there body's do not need it to function, they are just to small and simple.
Yes, bacteria play a crucial role in the nitrogen cycle. They are involved in processes such as nitrogen fixation, nitrification, and denitrification, which are essential for converting nitrogen into forms that plants can use and then back into atmospheric nitrogen.
They are called nitryfying bacteria. Examples are Rhizobium, Anabena etc
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria
Plants obtain nitrogen mainly from the soil in the form of nitrates or ammonium ions. During the nitrogen cycle, nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the soil convert atmospheric nitrogen into a usable form for plants. Some plants also have symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria in their root nodules to help them absorb nitrogen.
Chemoautotrophs like Nitrogen fixing bacteria
The bacteria that converts nitrogen gas into ammonia is known as nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Some examples of nitrogen-fixing bacteria include Rhizobium, Azotobacter, and Clostridium. These bacteria play a crucial role in the nitrogen cycle by making nitrogen available to 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.
Nitrogen fixation occurs in leguminous plant that have nitrogen fixing bacteria in the root nodule. The plants utilize the nitrogen from the nitrogen fixing bacteria. The bacteria utilize plant sugars formed via photosynthesis.
nitrites
They have bacteria growing in their roots that take nitrogen from the air and supply it to the legumes.
