Best I can remember, the horseshoe crab is the only animal on the planet that respires nitrogen vice oxygen. I also think that the blood is used to fight some forms of meningitis. I am not a scientist, but I pay attention once on a great while. Hope this may help.

Nitrate reduction test what does the presence of gas indicate?
if you look up the term Denitrification The formation of gaseous nitrogen and/or oxides of nitrogen from nitrate or nitrite by certain bacteria during ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION. Denitrification only occurs in ANAEROBIC or MICROAEROPHILIC conditions when there is sufficient organic carbon to support reaction. Denitrification may be used as a treatment technology to remove nitrogen oxides from liquid waste streams.

Does anaerobic respiration involve the breakdown of nitrate?
No, both aerobic and anaerobic respiration involves the breakdown of (usually) glucose. However, anaerobic glucose is simply converted directly into lactic acid, while aerobic respiration gives time for glucose to be completely broken down into acetyl-coA and filtered through the Krebs cycle. Therefore, to get the same amount of energy, anaeorbic respiration has to use a lot more molecles of glucose. Other sources of energy are fats and proteins.
Which is the most abundant gas in earths atmosphere?
nitrogen
What do Nitrogen and oxygen form?
Nitrogen oxide can refer to a binary compound of oxygen and nitrogen, or a mixture of such compounds.
Does the nitrogen cycle involve photosyethis and respiration?
No. Nitrogen is required to make proteins (which DO the photosynthesis & the respiration), but is not classed as part of the cycles.
The nitrogen cycle involves photosynthesis and respiration?
no it does not
Is respiration involved in the nitrogen cycle?
No, this is because no living thing breaths or exhales nitrogen.
Why does the concentrations of nitrogen stay the same when you exhale?
Because no nitrogen is absorbed. N is not needed in respiration.
What is the importance of respiration?
It keeps the brain and blood supplied with oxygen and nitrogen
What process in an organism is linked to the carbon cycle but not the nitrogen cycle?
Respiration in an organism is linked to the carbon cycle but not the nitrogen cycle.
What part do fish in a lake play in the nitrogen cycle?
Respiration. Also, if the fish die, they slowly return the nitrogen to the air.
Is the end product of respiration called nitrogen?
No. It is ATP, carbon dioxide, and water.
What is the roles of bacteria in nitrogen fixation?
what is the chemical equation for cellular respiration in words
What is the most abundant gas in the atmosphere that neither helps nor harms us to breathe?
Molecular nitrogen gas, N2, is 78% of Earth's atmosphere and does not affect human respiration in any negative way.Molecular nitrogen gas, N2, is 78% of Earth's atmosphere and does not affect human respiration in any negative way.
Why does the amount of nitrogen not change during respiration process?
Because it takes no part in any of the reactions.
What is the end product of nitrogen metabolism?
False.Nitogen does not produced by respiration. Carbon dioxide is produced
