Why is the disposal of nitrogenous waste a problem for animals but not for plants?
The nitrates in nitrogenous waste reduce the oxygen carrying capabilities of the haemoglobin in the blood of animals. Since plants do not have haemoglobin they can absorb it to help them make proteins.
What dangers do high levels of nitrates in the drinking water present for infants?
Humans and other animals usually have bacteria that convert nitrates into nitrates in their large intestines. For adults, the presence of these bacteria in the digestive system is not harmful, because the stomach of an adult is so acidic that the bacteria cannot survive. But the stomach of an infant is much less acidic, so the bacteria can move up into the stomach, where they will convert nitrates into nitrites. The nitrites can then pass into the blood of the infant.
What type of cell is not found in an animal?
Prokaryotic cells (bacteria) are not technically not part of animals, but they are found on and in animals.Animals are Eukaryotes. Meaning that they have cells with a nucleus (unlike bacteria which do not have a nucleus to hold in its DNA); and these cells do not have 'walls' like plants or fungi.Cells in animals differ on what their function is, shape always follows function.
Ammonia is a primary nitrogenous excretory product of what?
Ammonia is the primary nitrogenous excretory product of urination. It is the main excretory product of animals. Water animals tend to be more tolerant of high ammonia blood levels than land animals.
List Three main nitrogenous wastes of animals what is the relative need for water?
The three main nitrogenous wastes are ammonia, uric acid and urea.

Can most orgnisims get nitrogen gas from the air?
animals dont really need nitrogen but for plants, they need nitrogen and they get nitrogen usually in the form of nitrates or bacteria protein, by the work of nitrifying bacteria, putrefying bacteria and nitrogen fixing bacteria
What is bacterias function in the living world?
The function of the bacteria are to decompose or get rid of the waste or dead animals in the world.
What does decomposer help with?
De composers make nitrates and other minerals from the plants and animals they decomposed, and this helps the animals live longer. The nitrates and other minerals are very nutritious. hope it helps:p
What bacteria convert nitrites into nitrates?
Nitrogen fixation occurs in1 free living bacteria and archaea e.g. Azotobacter, Klebsiella, Clostridium, and Methanococcus,2 bacteria living in symbiotic association with plants such as legumes e.g. Rhizobium3 cyanobacteria e.g. Nostoc, Anabaena, and Trichodesmia.
Is feces considered to be a nitrogenous waste of animals?
Yes
What are the possible sources of nitrates in soil?
Dead plants, dead animals, animal waste, nitric acid rain (made by lightning and the spark when starting a car), and nitrogen fixing bacteria (e.g. rhizobuim).
