What type of organism is primarily responsible for the conversion of nitrogen into a useable form?
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria are primarily responsible for converting atmospheric nitrogen into a useable form, such as ammonia, that can then be utilized by plants for growth and development. These bacteria are found in the root nodules of leguminous plants, where they form a symbiotic relationship with the plant.
Which organism is needed to turn nitrogen into a useable form?
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria are needed to convert atmospheric nitrogen into a usable form for plants. These bacteria form symbiotic relationships with certain plants, like legumes, to provide them with a source of nitrogen for growth and development.
What 2 molecules are produced so that nitrogen is in a useable form?
nitrogen and oxygen
In nitrogen fixation what 2 molecules are produced so that nitrogen is in a useable form?
In nitrogen fixation, two molecules are produced: ammonia (NH3) and ammonium ion (NH4+). These molecules are in a usable form for plants to uptake and utilize for growth and development.
What is the process of changing free nitrogen gas into an useable form of nitrogen?
stick it in your butt :D
What roles legumes play in the nitrogen cycle?
They absorb nitrogen from the air. Then nitrogen-fixing bacteria convert it to a useable form.
When there is not enough nitrogen in the atmosphere for plants how do the plants get it?
Plants do not actually get their nitrogen from the atmosphere. They get it in compounds in the soil through their roots. Some plants form symbiotic relationships with bacteria in the soil. The bacteria draw nitrogen from the air and form nitrogen compounds. The plants can then use the nitrogen.
What is role of rhizobium bacteria?
Nitrogen is present in the largest amount in the atmosphere - in the gaseous form. So , it is impossible for organisms to take in nitrogen . As it is less reactive, it doesn't react in the gaseous form so it has to be converted to useable form....Rhizobium is a type of useful bacteria that helps in converting gaseous nitrogen to useable form, and then it releases it into the soil. Plants tale these and produce proteins. Animals eat plants and we eat both . This is how Rhizobium is helpful.
What is the most usable form of nitrogen for plants?
The most usable form of nitrogen for plants is nitrate (NO3-).
What can convert nitrogen in the air into a form plants can use?
Nitrogen fixing bacteria along and on the roots of plants converts gaseous nitrogen into a form that plants can absorb.
What is the process whereby certain mutualistic bacteria convert gaseous nitrogen to a form that plants can use?
Symbiotic is the type of relationship that plants can have with nitrogen-fixing bacteria.Specifically, the noun form of the word, symbiosis, comes from the ancient Greek words σύν ("together") and βίωσις ("living"). It designates a close, long-term relationship between two organisms. The bacteria gets exudates (sugary wastes) from the plant's roots in exchange for making nitrogen available in the soluble form in which it must be in order to pass through the roots and into the plant's network for moving nutrient-rich, watery solutions up, down and around the plant's interior parts.
How does nitrogen fixation help plants?
Because it converts nitrogen into a form plants can use.
