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 else can I help you with?
What happens to the nitrogen in organism's body when the organism dies?
When an organism dies the nitrogen in its body it is released by action of decomposers. A desert is a biome that is very dry and little precipitation.
What happen to the nitrogen in an organism after it dies?
Well, most of the Nitrogen in an organism's body is excreted as urine, urea or ammonia.
When an organism dies the nitrogen in its body do what?
the nitrogen in its body is released by the action of decomposers
What organism fix nitrogen in soil?
Bacteria
What organism is responsible for changing nitrogen gas into nitrogen into solid nitrogen compounds?
Chemoautotrophs like Nitrogen fixing bacteria
How Nitrogen fixation for plants occurs in what organism?
Nitrogen fixation is carried out by nitrogen fixing bacteria in the nodules of the roots of legumes, and in the soil.
How is nitrogen affected by nitrogen fixation?
Conversion of inert elemental nitrogen gas into biologically usable form is called nitrogen fixation. Organism that performs nitrogen fixation is Rhizobium Leguminous.
What process in an organism is linked to the carbon cycle but not the nitrogen cycle?
Photosynthesis is a process in an organism that is linked to the carbon cycle but not the nitrogen cycle. In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is taken up by plants to produce glucose and oxygen, which are important components of the carbon cycle. However, nitrogen is not directly involved in this process.
What is nitrogen fixation and who can do this?
Conversion of inert elemental nitrogen gas into biologically usable form is called nitrogen fixation. Organism that performs nitrogen fixation is Rhizobium Leguminous.
What organism is responsible for converting nitrogen into nitrates?
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria, such as Rhizobium and Azotobacter, are responsible for converting atmospheric nitrogen into nitrates through a process called nitrogen fixation. These bacteria can be found in the soil and form symbiotic relationships with plants to provide them with usable forms of nitrogen.
What organism fix nitrogen into form like ammonia?
BacteriaBacteria
What organism that can take Nitrogen directly from sea water?
Cyanobacteria
