Why do all organisms need nitrogen?
Nitrogen is the critical component of amino acids, which are the building blocks of protein. Since all organisms need protein for their cellular structure, no organism, that we know of, can exist without some nitrogen. There are different modes of acquiring nitrogen, however. The legumes, such as beans, are plants that can "fix" atmospheric nitrogen into amino acids, and thus do not need to acquire it from other organisms, like we do. There are also some bacteria that are capable of fixing nitrogen.
What organisms can transform unusable nitrogen?
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria
What is the cycle involving the exchange of nitrogen between organisms and the atmosphere?
nitrogen cycle
Which organisms are most critical in the nitrogen cycle?
Bacteria is the organism most critical in the nitrogen cycle. Bacteria in the nitrogen cycle provides different forms of nitrogen compounds used by higher organisms.
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.
Does organisms require nitrogen to make proteins?
i dont know try wiki
Living organisms require nitrogen to make nitrates and nitrites which are used to build?
proteins
What kinds organisms require water to live?
All organisms require water to live.
What organisms are related to the nitrogen cycle?
All animals and plants. The air is 78% nitrogen.
What group are all organisms capable of fixing nitrogen?
Plantae.
Why do herbivores nitrogen?
All organisms need nitrogen because it is a component of all proteins and many other essential molecules.
What do all living things use nitrogen to?
Nitrogen is a main component of our DNA, which is the genetics material of all living organisms.
Why do herbivores neede nitrogen?
All organisms need nitrogen because it is a component of all proteins and many other essential molecules.
Living organisms require nitrogen to make nitrates and nitrites which are used to build what?
Amino acids ... which are the building blocks for proteins.
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.
What things require energy?
All living organisms (not dead) require energy
Which macromolecule provides the most nitrogen for organisms?
Starch Is A Carbohydrate And Starch Provides Nitrogen For Most Plants. So Carbs Is The Answer But Only For Plants.. I Dont Know About All Organisms.
