Why do plants need nitrogen?
All plants need nitrogen to make amino acids, proteins and DNA, but the nitrogen in the atmosphere is not in a form that they can use. Other plants get the nitrogen they need from the soils or water in which they live mostly in the form of inorganic nitrate (NO3-). Bacteria living in plant nodules in the soil on the roots of the plant also provide the plant with the nitrogen it needs while providing the bacteria a sugar source. Nitrogen is a limiting factor for plant growth.
What is the relationship between bacteria and plants?
Plants need nitrogen to grow. They are surrounded by nitrogen in the air, but it is not in a form the plants can use. Nitrogen fixing bacteria on the roots of the plant convert (fix) the airborne nitrogen to a form the plants can use to grow.
Can humans get the nitrogen they need to exist in the air?
Plants and animals die and decomposers break down their nitrogen containing molecules to ammonia. All animals get the nitrogen they need by eating plants, by eating other animals that ate plants, or by eating animals that ate animals that ate plants.
Why are nitrogen-fixing bacteria important to plants?
nitrogen fixing bacteria fix or attach atmospheric nitrogen in soil or make it easily avialable to the plants as plants need nitrogen as one of their macronutrient element for their growth.
What would happen to the nitrogen cycle if there were no green plants?
If there were no green plants there would be no nitrogen cycle.If there were no green plants, the nitrogen that most organisms need wouldn't be transferred to all living things. Nitrogen is in green plants first, and then the herbivores, omnivores, and carnivores get it by eating the plants or eating the animals that eat those plants. Without green plants, those animals wouldn't really have anything to get the nitrogen from. Nitrogen is crucial to all plants in making amino acids and proteins which they need to survive, so there would be no life on Earth.
Do plants produce food when they no nitrogen?
No,plants need nitrogen.
Do plants produced food when they have no nitrogen?
No,plants need nitrogen.
Why do plants and animal and other organisms need nitrogen?
Nitrogen is required by plants and animals for protein synthesis
What do plants need nitrogen for?
Nitrogen available to plants as Nitrates supplies the wherewithall for plants to produce foliage.
How do herbivores get the nitrogen they need to grow?
Herbivores get the nitrogen they need by eating plants.
Why plant needs nitrogen?
Plants need nitrogen to build proteins and nucleic acids.
Why do plants need manure?
Plants need manure for their nutrients and organic matter such as nitrogen.
Why is nitrogen important in the soil?
plants need nitrogen to grow thats why in ponds there is alot of plants cuz the nitrogen runs off from the fields!!
What kind of nitrogen do plants need?
Bacteria and plant roots perform nitrogen fixation, which allows plants to use the nitrogen. Nitrogen is used in cells to build proteins and DNA. However, plants get their nitrogen as "nutrients" in the soil.
