What organisms can help plants take up nitrogen from the air?
Any nitrogen-fixing bacteria adds nitrogen to the soil for plants. More than 90 percent of all nitrogen fixation is effected by these organisms and they play an important role in the nitrogen cycle. There are a few plants that love nitrogen gas. They are able to draw the nitrogen gas from the air and store it in their roots. These are called nitrogen fixing plants. But they need help from the bacteria mentioned above. They do release a little nitrogen to the soil and when they die, they add more. The group of plants that do this are the legumes (peas and beans).
What is a common name for nitrogen-fixing bacteria?
Diazotroph is the common name for nitrogen-fixing bacteria and micro-organisms.Specifically, the term designates organisms that are capable of turning atmospheric nitrogen into more usable forms, such as ammonia. It includes such soil-dwellers as Frankia genus members living symbiotically with actinorhizal (beech, cucurbit and rose-related orders) plants and Rhizobia genus members living symbiotically with leguminous (bean-related order) plants. Cyanobacteria living symbiotically with lichens and liverworts also number among the diazotrophs of greater name recognition.
A major group of organisms that are in general multicellular capable of locomotion and responsive to their environment and feed by consuming other organisms?
Animal
Which group 5a element other than nitrogen is essential to living organisms?
phosphorus
What is the species?
A species is often defined as a group of organisms capable of interbreeding and producing fertile offspring
A group of organisms capable of interbreeding and producing fertile offspring is known as?
Species
What is a group of related organisms having common characteristics and capable of interbreeding?
Organisms that can interbreed are all members of the same species if their offspring are viable (can themselves breed).
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.
A species is usually defined as?
A fundamental category of taxonomic classification, ranking below a genus or subgenus and consisting of related organisms capable of interbreeding.
What is the group number for nitrogen?
the group number for nitrogen is group 15.
What is the nitrogen group?
The nitrogen group is group 15 on the periodic table.
Does nitrogen belong to the halogen group?
No. Nitrogen is in group 15 not in group 17.
