yes nitrogen is present in protein
Yes the amino group of all amino acids are having nitrogen. amino group NH2 involved directly to form peptide bond with COOH group. Nitrogens are also found in DNA and RNA.in the nitrogenous base.

proteins are formed from peptides which are formed from amino acids, trhough amide bond NH-CO. If there is no notrogen there is no peptide bond so no protein

No. Nitrates are simple ionic compounds, salts of nitric acid. Proteins are complex organic molecules. They do contain nitrogen atoms, but as part of amine groups.

Plants use nitrates to form?

Plants use nitrates to make proteins - these are the building blocks of all the plant material and enzymes. or they make 'amino acids' which are then used to make the proteins if you want to be really technical like Sam!


Why does nitrates help plant growth?

Nitrates are essential for the growth of amino acids and therefore are essential for the production plant proteins, which help the plant to grow :)


Living organisms require nitrogen to make nitrates and nitrites which are used to build?

How do humans use nitrogen?

Humans use nitrogen in the form of proteins. Bacteria found in soil convert atmospheric nitrogen into nitrates that plants use to produce proteins.

Can nitrogen be eaten?

The nitrates fertilize plant growth where the nitrogenbecomes bound in amino acids, DNA and proteins. It can then be eaten by animals


Living organisms require nitrogen to make nitrates and nitrites which are used to build what?

Amino acids ... which are the building blocks for proteins.


What happens if a plant is lacking nitrates?

Nitrates are needed for protein's, so it results in the plant not having the proteins it needs. Also it will have yellow older leaves and a stunted growth. :) And just if you wanted to know: nitrates stimulate root development and are required for protein production. Chlorophyll, needed for photosynthesis, is a protein and without the nitrogen from the nitrates it cannot be made <---this is why the leaves are small and yellow in colour! :) Hope I helped :)


How does lighting help nitrogen to get to the soil?

The high temperature of lightning provides a tremendous amount of energy for nitrogen in the air to combine with o2 to form nitrogen monoxide. It combines with more o2 to form nitrogen dioxide. It dissolves in the rain water to form nitric acid which falls to the ground. In the soil, they combine with other substances to form nitrates. Nitrates are soluble in water which are absorbed by plants. The plant changes nitrates to proteins. Living organisms get proteins from plants.
