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 are methods of nitrogen fixation that complete the nitrogen cycle?
nitrogen fixation takes place with the help of lightning , bacteria called rhizobium lives in the nodules of legumenous plants convert nitrogen into nitrogeous compounds , algae etc. also helps in nitrogen fixation
What do some bacteria do that is especially helpful to plans?
There is a group of bacteria (Nitrosomonas) which lives in nodules on the roots of leguminous plants (e.g. peas and beans) that fixes atmospheric nitrogen into a form that the plant can use. Because of this the plant does not need nitrogenous fertiliser.
Where on earth do bacteria lives?
Bacteria live in and on animals, humans and plants.
What animal lives in a geyser?

What lives longer bacteria or virus?
That depends on the bacteria, the virus, and your definition of "living."
How is nitrogen fixed in the soil?
Bacteria that exist in the root nodules of some plants can absorb nitrogen from the air in the soil. One notable example is the Rhizobia that lives in nodules on soybean roots. Similar root systems exist in clover and alfalfa.

How is nitrogen important in our lives?
nitrogen moves through living and non-living ecosystems
What are the symbiosis participants and symbiotic relationship in anthrax and AIDS?
Plant Root Nodules: It is between nitrogen fixing bacteria and nodules in legumes. It is mutualism. The bacteria lives in small areas on the roots of legumes called nodules. The bacteria causes nitrogen fixation and the ammonia is absorbed by the plants. Digestion of Cellulose: It is between termites and protists in it's intestine. It is mutualism also. The termite is dependent upon the protozoa living in its intestine to durive nutrition. The protists digest the cellulose in wood. Ultimately, if termites didnt have protists, they would continue to eat wood and not be able to digest it and would die of starvation because they wouldn't be getting any nutrition.
