Answer:

Denitrification = bacteria convert nitrates into nitrogen gas.

Denitrification occurs when nitrogen is removed from the soil and this happens when bacteria concert nitrites back to Nitrogen gas.

Nitrification = Bacteria convert ammonia to nitrites and nitrates.

Nitrification is the process by which bacteria concert ammonia made from ammonification into useful organic compounds like nitrites.

Nitrogen fixation = bacteria break down waste products and return nitrogen to the soil.

Nitrogen fixation is when bacteria return nitrogen to the soil by breaking down waste products that fall into the soil.

Ammonification = bacteria convert atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia.

During ammonification, bacteria converts nitrogen compounds to Ammonia or Ammonium.

Assimilation = Plants and animals take in and use nitrogen compounds.

Assimilation then occurs when plants take in these nitrogen compounds and use them. Animals will get these compounds by eating the plants.

Suppose a human blood cell containing a 0.9 percent solute concentration were put into a container of 0 percent solute solution

Vladimir [108]

Answer and explanation:

If a human blood cell with a 0.9% solute concentration were to be put into a container of 0% solute solution, the cell would get BIGGER.

The cell contains a more concentrated solution than the solution in the container. The difference in concentration would produce an osmotic gradient that would cause water from the container to get inside the cell to even the concentrations - this is going to make the cell much bigger because the entering water would bloat the cell.

In this example, the solution in the container is hypotonic in relation to the cell, while the solution inside the cell is hypertonic in relation to the solution in the container. This is why the water will be moving from outside of the cell to the inside of the cell.
