Legumes, a type of plant, require Rhizobia, a type of soil bacteria, to survive since these organisms fix nitrogen during photos

ynthesis. Rhizobia use the legumes for food. What would most likely happen to the legume population if Rhizobia suddenly became extinct?

The answer is: the legumes will extinct, too.


It is known that plants cannot directly use atmospheric nitrogen. But, some legumes have a symbiotic relationship with bacteria that live in their root system. These bacteria are called Rhizobia and have the ability of nitrogen-fixation. In the root nodules, they use atmospheric nitrogen to convert it into ammonia, and later to ammonium, which can be used by plants. When legumes die, nitrogen from their remaining is released back to the soil where it is available to the other plants.

So, if <span>Rhizobia suddenly became extinct, the symbiotic relationship between will be interrupted. The legumes will not be able to use atmospheric nitrogen without the help of Rhizobia, and eventually, they will extinct, too.</span>

Describe what you think is happening during photosynthesis.
boyakko [2]

Answer:

During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide (CO 2) and water (H 2 O) from the air and soil. Within the plant cell, the water is oxidized, meaning it loses electrons, while the carbon dioxide is reduced, meaning it gains electrons. This transforms the water into oxygen and the carbon dioxide into glucose.

Explanation:

The energy for photosynthesis comes from light. Light energy is converted to chemical energy by chlorophyll. There are two sets of reactions, light dependent and light independent. The process mostly takes place in the chloroplasts of plant leaf mesophyll cells. Photosynthesis is the process where a plants uses the sun’s energy to turn light into chlorophyll. Plants produce oxygen during this process and utilize carbon dioxide. Photosynthesis is the single most important chemical process on the earth. Almost all plants needs the sun in order to survive Photosynthesis is the most important chemical process on earth – it provides food and energy for all living creatures who eat the plants that rely on this process to produce their food (glucose). · More than half (70%) of the world’s oxygen is produced by phytoplankton photosynthesis in the world’s oceans.

Compare homologous and analogous structures
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Homologous structures can be described as the structures which are similar to one another present in different organisms. These similarities depict that the organisms might have a common ancestor i the past. For example, the forelimb of man, birds, dogs.

Analogous structures can be described as structures in different organisms which perform the same function but might not have a common origin. For example, the wings of bats and birds.
