Plants do not directly absorb nitrogenous waste like urine; however, they can benefit from the nutrients it contains. When urine breaks down in the soil, microorganisms convert its nitrogen compounds into forms that plants can uptake, such as ammonium and nitrate. Thus, while plants don't absorb urine directly, the nutrients can be made available through decomposition and microbial processes.
Dead plants and animals are helpful because when they decompose, the bacteria help release certain nutrients into the ground that plants thrive on. Sort of like if one plant releases nitrogen into the soil and then is planted next to a plant that thrives on it.
This process is known as nitrogen fixation. Soil bacteria convert nitrogenous wastes into nitrates through a process called nitrification. Plants then absorb these nitrates to fulfill their nutrient requirements.
Humans gain energy directly from plants by eating the plants themselves in the form of fruits, vegetables, and grains. We gain energy from them indirectly by eating the meat of animals that eat 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.
The answer is: carbon dioxide that is released by animals is absorbed by plants ;)))
Plants give off oxygen for animals to breathe and animals exhale CO2 which plants use to make glucose and take out more oxygen. Then animals eat plants to get glucose and when they die or defecate, they leave nitrogenous wastes which are eaten by plants (absorption through roots).
False. Animals do not get nitrogen directly by eating decomposers. Rather, animals obtain nitrogen by consuming plants or other animals that have already processed and absorbed nitrogen from the environment. Decomposers break down organic matter and release nitrogen back into the soil, where plants can then absorb it.
Consumption, where animals eat plants or other animals that have consumed plants, is the primary process that directly moves nutrients from plants to animals. Through this process, animals obtain the nutrients necessary for their growth and survival.
damp area where nutrients are directly absorbed
Because plants are eaten by animals, almost all life on Earth is directly indirectly...
No, refer to carnivores.
