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

What is nitrogen fixation primarily carried out by?
Nitrogen-fixating prokaryotes (such as bacteria) present in the roots of legumes and some other plants take N2 from the air and convert it to nitrogen compounds usable by plants. Nitrogen fixing bacteria (diazotrophs).
How do plants get the nitrogen they need?
From the soil by the roots or fixation from the air
Why does nitrogen and oxygen react in a car engine?
Nitrogen and oxygen can react to form oxides of nitrogen. The reaction can occur whenever a combustion reaction takes place in the presence of nitrogen. It could take place in a car engine because it is where fuel combusts and the temperature within engines can be high. The products formed are NO (nitric oxide) and NO2 (nitrogen dioxide) which are of harm to the environment.
How do plants take nitrogen from the atmosphere?
Plants absorb nitrate compounds from soil through their root hairs, which are outgrowths of the trichoblast cells in the roots.Most plants are not able to use nitrogen as such (N2), though some, including legumes and casuarinas, supply water and food to symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria in specialised root nodules, and these fix nitrogen to nitrate which they supply to the plants.
How do consumers obtain nitrogen?
Plants take in nitrogen from their roots then the consumers eat the plants.
Nitrogen fixation is believed to take place within which Nostoc cell?
Heterocysts
What is the proccess by which bacteria take nitrogen out of the atmosphere?
This is known as nitrogen fixation.
Do producers take in energy from nitrogen?
Yes, producers do take in energy from nitrogen. This occurs due to the specific nitrogen cycle that allows for continuous flow of nitrogen through the biosphere which is a result of nitrogen fixation processes.
What will happen if you take nitrogen from the air?
nothing will happen
What are two ways that nitrogen fixation can take place?
Lightning strikes and special bacteria that grow on plant roots.
Where do most carbon fixation reactions take place in plants?
the stroma
What is nitrogen fixation primarily carried out by?

How do you obtain nitrogen gas from air?
You get it every time you take a breath even though you don't need it to survive.
How do plants get the nitrogen they need?
From the soil by the roots or fixation from the air
How does the supply of nitrogen in grains take place?
From old Leaves.
During which stage of photosynthesis does carbon fixation take place?
During the Light Independent Stage or second stage of photosynthesis.
What does occurs' mean?
to happen; to exist; to come to mind
