What do nitogen-fixing bacteria do?
Nitrogen fixing bacteria change nitrogen from the air into nitrogen compounds such as ammonia, nitrate, and nitrogen dioxide. They do so, through two living arrangements. One's as free living bacteria in the soil. The other's in association with plants of the Fabaceae and Leguminosae families, such as beans and peas. In this arrangement, the plant gives the bacteria sugars in the form of exudates [waste products]. In return, the bacteria provides the plant with nitrogen in forms that the plant can take in.
Can a plant be given too much nitrogen and if so what would the effects on the plant be?
exess nitrogen will produce fast and soft growth which will probably collapse under its own wieght, at higher levels the exess nitrogen turns toxic and the new leaf tips will turn brown. at even higher levels all plant tissue will be affected and the plant will die. exess nitrogen can turn to ammonia as well as other nitrogen based molecules and produce said toxic effect
What are leguminous plant and how do they increase the fertility of soil?
Peas, beans or peanuts. There is a type of bacteria that can grow on their roots known as nitrogen fixing bacteria. It has the ability to take nitrogen from the air, and convert it to a form of nitrogen fertilizer than plants can use.
What converts nitrogen in the nitrogen cycle?
okay heres the nitrogen cycle nitrogen from atmosphere it taken in by 1)lightning( its energy causes nitrogen to react with oxygen n rain to the soil) 2)nitrogen- fixing bacteria in nodules ( plant roots which take it directly form the atmosphere ) NITROGEN FROM SOIL to organisms 1)nitrogen fixing bacteria in soil - breakdown of dead plants n animals releases nitrogen to the soil 2)fertilizers - which contain nitrogen compounds eg NPK OR natural fertilizers i,e dead plants n animals release nitrogen , animal urine and faeces release nitrogen as well to the soil 3)nitrogen fixing bacteria in nodules get nitrogen from its compounds in the soil 4)nitrifying bacteria - converts compounds of ammonia into nitrates .. for the plant nodules NITROGEN TO ATMOSPHERE 1) denitrifying bacteria in soil - changes nitrates to nitrogen gas and its released back to the atmosphere
Do the roots only take in water for the plant?
No it also takes minerals and vitamins for the better growth of plant
What is the only form of nitrogen that nonlegume plants can take in and use?
photosynthesis
How does a plant take in nitrogen?
plants take in nitrogen compounds through their roots.
What is the relationship between the plant and bacteria in root nodules?
The nodules contain bacteria which can convert atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia
How do plants use the nitrogen cycle?
Plants take in Nitrogen, Co2, and release oxegen. That's why we should plant more trees.
What happens in lack of nitrate ions in plants?
If a plant doesn't take in nitrates, it will wither and die. Nitrogen is one of the three macronutrients (nutrients needed in relatively large amounts) for any given plant. The other two are phosphorous and potassium. The only way for a plant to absorb nitrogen is through nitrogen-rich compounds, such as the nitrates and nitrites.

What does nitrate do for a plant for gypsys?
I think your question should be rephrased to: "what does nitrogen do for a plant?" Nitrate is one of the two forms of nitrogen that a plant can take up: the other is ammonium. Nitrogen is one of the essential elements a plant needs, and one of the more abundant ones in terms of total mass per gram of dried plant. It is an essential component in proteins and nucleic acids, and secondary metabolites. (Thanks for letting us use this for our school work.)
Can liquid nitrogen be used as a fertilizer for agriculture?
No. Firstly liquid nitrogen has a boiling point of 77K. That's -196degrees Celsius, which will freeze all water in contact with it. Not only will the roots not be able to take up water from the soil, water within the plant cells will also freeze, damaging the roots. Secondly, liquid nitrogen will vaporize rapidly when exposed to the environment, which is at room temperature. This means that when liquid nitrogen is poured into the soil, it is not different from the plant absorbing nitrogen in the form of gaseous nitrogen. Thirdly, nitrogen uptake is best facilitated in the aqueous form, ie. dissolved in water in the form of nitrate or ammonium ions. Liquid nitrogen/gaseous nitrogen do not dissolve very well in water.
What nitrogen compounds do plants take in?
the inorganic forms of nitrogen, nitrate and ammonium, are considered to be the two nitrogen compounds which plants take up through their roots and use for their growth.the ability of roots to take up organic nitrogen in the form of amino acids appears to be common among different plant species.New research has shown that, apart from amino acids, plants can also take up organic nitrogen in the form of peptides and small proteins.Refer to link below.

What do plants do with the nitrogen they take in?
they don't take in nitrogen
