Rhizobium.
Rhizobium.
is called Nitrogen-fixing bacteria
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.
Rhizoobium or nitrogen fixing bacteria lives in the roots of leguminous plants.leguminous plants are not able to use atmospheric nitrogen as sush,so these bacteria convert nitrogen into simpler forms i.e nitrates and nitrits which are easily used up by these plants.
The nitrogen cycle depends on the bacteria found in the nodules of plant roots, particularly in legumes. These bacteria, such as Rhizobium, convert atmospheric nitrogen into a form that plants can use, a process known as nitrogen fixation. This symbiotic relationship enhances soil fertility and allows plants to thrive in nitrogen-poor environments.

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.
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.
Blue green algae or cyanobateria are nitrogen fixing prokaryotic bacteria which are one of the few organisms which can turn atmospheric ,comparitively inert and unusable nitrogen(N2)into usable compounds like nitrites(NO2) and nitrates(NO3)which are used by plants for synthesis of nitrogen compounds like proteins necessary for life
Nitrogen is essential for building proteins in our bodies, supporting plant growth, and maintaining healthy soil. It is also used in the production of fertilizers, explosives, and medical drugs. Additionally, nitrogen makes up about 78% of Earth's atmosphere, playing a crucial role in maintaining the balance necessary for life.
Rhizobium are the bacterial speicies which show symbioitic relation ship with plants by fixing nitrogen for them They are found in root nodules of legumenous plants and the nodules having rhizobium generally appear reddish pink in color due to presence of leghaemoglobin pigment this word is not an English word it is Italiano
Yes, a bacterium known as rhizobium lives inside special nodules on the roots of soybeans and other legumes. Rhizobium is able to take gaseous nitrogen from the atmosphere and turn it into an organic form, which can be use by the plant. The bacteria gets a safe place to live inside the plant and the plant gets nitrogen from the bacteria.
