What cycle depends on the bacteria in these nodules?
Then cycle that depends on bacteria to convert nitrogen gas into ammonia is the nitrogen cycle. This is the part of the cycle called nitrogen fixation.
What cycle depends on bacteria?
nitrogen
How do nitrogen fixing bacteria on root nodules function in the nitrogen cycle?
Although the air is made up of about 70% nitrogen, plants cannot use nitrogen in this N2 form. Nitrogen fixing bacteria change nitrogen into the form of soluble nitrates so that plants can use it. Other bacteria, known as de-nitrifying bacteria, change nitrates back into N2, which completes the nitrogen cycle. Some nitrifying bacteria lives in the roots of legumes, and do the same job.
What converts nitrogen in the nitrogen cycle?
okay heres the nitrogen cycle nitrogen from atmosphere it taken in by 1)lightning( its energy causes nitrogen to react with oxygen n rain to the soil) 2)nitrogen- fixing bacteria in nodules ( plant roots which take it directly form the atmosphere ) NITROGEN FROM SOIL to organisms 1)nitrogen fixing bacteria in soil - breakdown of dead plants n animals releases nitrogen to the soil 2)fertilizers - which contain nitrogen compounds eg NPK OR natural fertilizers i,e dead plants n animals release nitrogen , animal urine and faeces release nitrogen as well to the soil 3)nitrogen fixing bacteria in nodules get nitrogen from its compounds in the soil 4)nitrifying bacteria - converts compounds of ammonia into nitrates .. for the plant nodules NITROGEN TO ATMOSPHERE 1) denitrifying bacteria in soil - changes nitrates to nitrogen gas and its released back to the atmosphere
Is lytic cycle a virus or a bacteria?
A virus
What cycle depends on the bacteria in these nodules?
Then cycle that depends on bacteria to convert nitrogen gas into ammonia is the nitrogen cycle. This is the part of the cycle called nitrogen fixation.
What processes in the nitrogen cycle are completed by bacteria?
It is nitrogen fixation, which occurs by nitrogen-fixing bacteria that live in the root nodules of legumes and in the soil..
In the nitrogen cycle bacteria that live on the roots of plants?
change nitrogen gas into ammonia

Does bacteria have a direct role in the nitrogen cycle?
Nitrogen fixing bacteria do. They tend to grow in root nodules of legumes and convert nitrogen gas from the air to nitrates that the legumes can use as "food". The legumes feed the bacteria carbohydrates in return. Classic symbiosis.
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.
What is the role of bacteria in the phosphorus cycle?
Well............ In phosphorus cycle bacteria decomposes dead organisms and also fossils and phosphorus is available in organisms so when bacteria decompose them phosphorus is released
What are non - examples of nitrogen?
an example of non nitrogen cycle is well if an example of nitrogen cycle is bacteria a non example is not bacteria
Why is bacteria critical to nitrogen cycle?
Because nitrifying bacteria can fix atmospheric nitrogen in to chemical compounds. This nitrogen fixed by bacteria is utilized by plants in making proteins. Again several microbes including bacteria decompose organic matter in to inorganic compounds. Thus nitrogen cycle is maintained by the activity of bacteria, hence these are critical to nitrogen cycle.
