There is a bacterium that resides within the rhizomes - nodules found within the roots - of Legumes that transforms atmospheric N2 [gaseous molecular Nitrogen] into its forms [NO2 and NO3] that are biochemically active.

What are two types are organisms in the nitrogen fixation?
Nitrogen fixing bacteria and Denitrifying bacteria
Nitrogen fixation is carried out primarly by?
Nitrogen Fixation Bacteria are the primary source in which Nitrogen Fixation is carried out. The bacteria changes N2 (unreactive element) into nitrogen compounds, which are soluble and can be absorbed.
What will happen if nitrogen fixation does not take place?
if nitrogen fixation does not take place nitrates will not be taken if nitrates are not there so there is no photosynthesis so it metaboills and if photosynthesis is not there so there is no life thats what nitrogen fixation not allows in nitrogen cycle
Is it true or false that Nitrogen fixation makes nitrogen gas useful to crops?
nitrification or nitrogen fixation. aslo is know as False.
What is the first step of the nitrogen cycle?
The first step of the nitrogen cycle is nitrogen fixation.
What organisms other than bacteria are able to perform nitrogen fixation?
Certain plants like clover, soybeans, alfalfa, lupines, peanuts, and rooibos can perform nitrogen fixation.
How does atmospheric nitrogen fixation affect organisms?
Atmospheric nitrogen fixation is the process where nitrogen is converted into ammonia. Without nitrogen, organisms couldn't grow, and organisms need nitrogen more than anything to grow.
How organisms put nitrogen back into the ecosystem?
nitrogen fixation. look it up
What are two types are organisms in the nitrogen fixation?
Nitrogen fixing bacteria and Denitrifying bacteria
What is nitrogen fixation accomplished by?
ok so............... nitrogen fixation helps the plants and the bacteria to convert atmospheric nitrogen into the amonia ....amonium...nitrate and nitrite {simple substances of nitrogen}............these are the only forms of nitrogen that could be used by the plants
What is industrial fixation?
Industrial fixation is a synthetic method of converting atmospheric nitrogen to nitrogen oxides or ammonium ions that plants and other organisms are able to use
What is the process in which nitrogen is converted into a usable form for life called?
Nitrogen Fixation -Eugene Chung
Which organisms captures atmospheric nitrogen for the process of nitrogen fixation?
Legumes. They are the primary plant in an ecosystem, and help convert atmospheric nitrogen in nitrogen in the soil that plants can absorb through their root systems. The process is called nitrogen fixation.The organisms involved in nitrogen fixation are nitrifying bacteria like Azatobacter and Pseudomonas forming root nodules in legumenous plants.
What is the process by which gaseous nitrogen is converted into ammonia a compound that organisms can use to make amino acids and other nitrogen-containig organic molecules?
Nitrogen fixation
Why must living organisms rely on nitrogen fixation for their source of nitrogen?
Biology relies on chemistry. The nitrogen must be able to attach to the receptor molecule to be used. Nitrogen fixation renders nitrogen into a less s table form so that it can break bonds and attach to other molecules.
How is nitrogen affected by nitrogen fixation?
Conversion of inert elemental nitrogen gas into biologically usable form is called nitrogen fixation. Organism that performs nitrogen fixation is Rhizobium Leguminous.
What is nitrogen fixation and who can do this?
Conversion of inert elemental nitrogen gas into biologically usable form is called nitrogen fixation. Organism that performs nitrogen fixation is Rhizobium Leguminous.
