What are Bacteria bumps on roots that turn air into a form of nitrogen that plants can use is called what type of relationship?
"symbiotic"
Why can't animals use nitrogen in the air?
Because the nitrogen in the air is in a form not usable to animals and plants. The only way animals get nitrogen to build protein and nucleic acid is by eating it. This is usually through plants, which get there nitrogen from the soil. They get it from the soil cuz bacteria in the soil turn the atmospheric nitrogen into a usable form. In a water ecosystem cyanobacteria a.k.a. blue-green algae transform the nitrogen from the atmosphere into usable forms of nitrate
Why is the nitrogen cycle important to living thing?
nitrogen cycle is important because the plants make protein from it. The rhizobeam present at the root noddles of legumes convert nitrogen into soluble form like nitrates and nitrides. this are absorbed by plants. animals eat the plants when they did their are certain bacteria present in the soil which convert the soluble form into atmospheric nitrogen. this is nitrogen cycle.
What to do if indoor plants turn yellow?
lack of nitrogen or iron depending on the location and form of the yellowing
Does the nitrogen in lightning turn grass green?
Yes. Lightning provides the intense energy needed to combine atmospheric nitrogen and oxygen into nitrates. The rain then carries these nitrates down to the earth's surface enriching the soil. Acting as a fertilizer, nitrates in an indirect way helps make the grass green.
Why do pulse plants have nodules in them?
Pulse plants have nodules to help them convert nitrogen in the atmosphere to ammonia that can be used by the pulse plants to manufacture amino acids, proteins, nucleic acids, and other nitrogen-containing compounds that are necessary for the pulse plants to survive.The conversion of atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia is called nitrogen fixation. The nitrogen fixation process starts with the formation of nodules.Rhizobium is a common soil bacterium which invades the roots of the pulse plant and multiplies within the cells of the cortex layer. Within a week after infection small nodules are visible to the naked eye.The nodules grow and turn pink or reddish in color indicating that the process of nitrogen fixation has started.
What are facts about ammonium nitrate?
It was developed by Germans during a war to replace Chilean Nitrates as Fertilizer. A boatload of it blew up in Texas City. Mines now use it to replace dynamite. It is a whole lot less expensive. It is also used as fertilizer. Plants use the Nitrate part immediately. The Ammonia part slowly turns to a form of nitrogen that plants can use. Plants turn nitrogen into protein.
What is the input of plants?
Plants are very important to our environment. Plants absorb nitrogen and carbon dioxide and turn it into oxygen, this causes an oxygen rich environment. Plants are wonderful and essential for Earth's atmosphere to survive.
What living organism uses the air humans breathe out?
plants. when humans exhale carbondioxide, plants take it in and turn it back into oxygen. especially trees
When will the sun turn into liguid nitrogen?
The Sun will never turn into liquid nitrogen.
Decaying plants add nitrogen to the soil?
The dead animals and plants remain organs breaks down and that remains turn into carbon.
Why is the nitrogen cycle important for the growth of plants?
Nitrogen actually is a big part of chlorophyll which is the chemical that gives plants their dark green color. During fall plants turn colors other than green because they lose their chlorophyll. So Nitrogen does give plants the dark green color that looks so great. However, if you get too much nitrogen in the soil, then it will start hurting the plant.
