What else can I help you with?
How is a lichen different from most other plants?
Lichen is a mixture of algae / cyanobacteria and fungi. Lichens may look like plants but they do not reproduce with flowers. Lichens do not have roots like plants. They grow on plants as a substrate not as a parasite.
How do scientists believe that plants or cyanobacteria changed the world?
Cyanobacteria produced oxygen.
How is cyanobacteria like algae and land plants?
Although cyanobacteria do not have chloroplasts, they do have thylakoid membrane, where photosynthesis occur.
What do Cyanobacteria use for energy?
Cyanobacteria have the same green pigment that plants have, chlorophyll, and use it to make energy.
What is the sequence that represents the correct order of development of chloroplasts of modern plants from their primitive ancestors?
Cyanobacteria > Red Algae > Green Algae > Land Plants
What type of roots do plants have?
Desert plants are known to have taproots. With these types of roots there are two components which consist of the primary root and secondary lateral roots. These types of roots can also be found on dandelions, carrots, radishes, potatoes, and beets.
What two kinds of plants have these bacteria in there roots?
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria.
What two plants have no true stem or roots or leaves?
Algae and mosses are two examples of plants that can lack true stems, roots, and leaves. These plants typically have simple structures that allow them to absorb nutrients and carry out photosynthesis.
What type of organism is responsible for performing the majority of nitrogen fixation?
There are two ogranisms that are nitrogen fixers:Free-living (non-symbiotic) bacteria, which live in the soil. This includes the cyanobacteria (or blue-green algae) Anabaena and Nostoc and such genera as Azotobacter, Beijerinckia, and ClostridiumMutualistic (symbiotic) bacteria, which live live in nodules in the roots of plants. This includes Rhizobium,associated with leguminous plants, and Spirillum lipoferum,associated with cereal grasses.Nitrogen fixing bacteria are microorganisms present in the soil or in plant roots that change nitrogen gas from the atmosphere into solid nitrogen compounds that plants can use in the soil.
What two things do plants need to take in from the roots?
Water and mineral nutrients.
What two plants have nitrogen-fixing bacteria in their roots?
Clover peas lupins.
What two plants roots we use for food?
Carrots and turnips.Beets and Sugar beets.
