Describe the nitrogen cycle and explain why it is important for the survival?
The nitrogen cycle is how nitrogen moves between plants, animals, bacteria, the atmosphere, and the soil. In each phase, it is in a different form.
When do animals lose nitrogen?
Animals will lose nitrogen when they die. This is whey decay and nitrogen is released as ammonia into the air.
How do bacteria help the nitrogen cycle?
Actually nitrogen exist in the atmosphere in dinitrogen (N2) form and cannot be utilized directly. As such bacteria help in converting atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia which then can be used by the plants.
Why do plants and animal and other organisms need nitrogen?
Nitrogen is required by plants and animals for protein synthesis
Which part of the 4 abiotic cycles occur in the biosphere?
1. Biogeochemical Cycle 2. Water Cycle 3. Nitrogen Cycle 4. Carbon Cycle
How the nitrogen cycle help the man and animals?
nitrogen cycle helps man in the balancing of relation between animals and plants and food chain
What organisms are related to the nitrogen cycle?
All animals and plants. The air is 78% nitrogen.
Describe the path of nitrogen through its biogeochemical cycle?
Nitrogen gas in the soil is used by plants, which are eaten by animals. The waste products of the animals contain the nitrogen. It is broken down by bacteria, which releases nitrogen gas into the atmosphere, and the cycle repeats.
Who runs the nitrogen cycle?
Plants, Animals, fungi and bacteria.
The way nitrogen moves between the air soil plants and animals is called the?
nitrogen cycle
How do animals like the deer pictured contribute to the nitrogen cycle?
Animals such as deer eat plants that contain nitrogen. The nitrogen helps the animals build and repair cells. When that animal dies, the nitrogen is released back into the atmosphere.

Animals such as deer eat plants that contain nitrogen. The nitrogen helps the animals build and repair cells. When that animal dies, the nitrogen is released back into the atmosphere.
Describe the nitrogen cycle and explain why it is important for the survival?
The nitrogen cycle is how nitrogen moves between plants, animals, bacteria, the atmosphere, and the soil. In each phase, it is in a different form.
Which organisms are most critical in the nitrogen cycle?
Bacteria is the organism most critical in the nitrogen cycle. Bacteria in the nitrogen cycle provides different forms of nitrogen compounds used by higher organisms.
How do plants and animals get nitrogen is not from the atmosphere?
In rainforests where there is loads of leeching, plants get their nitrogen from other dead plants, where a nitrogen cycle is established
How will the removal of leguminous plants affect the nitrogen cycle?
it affects the nitrogen cycle as the leguminous plants have nitrogen-fixing bacteria on their roots and these nitrogen-fixing bacteria help to collect nitrogen which is transferred to animals when these leguminous plants have been eaten.
How are carbon and nitrogen recycled in nature?
While carbon cycle is maintained mainly by plants and animals, nitrogen cycle is maintained mainly by nitrifying bacteria and plants.
