Nitrogen Cycle steps:

N molecules breaking apart via nitrogen-fixing bacteria.

Animals ingest nitrogen in nitrate-containing food after plants use nitrogen-containing compounds.

The organic matter decays via decomposers

N2 is formed via denitrifying bacteria.

Explanation:

The nitrogen-fixing bacteria removes atmospheric nitrogen by fixing nitrogen through nitrification. The atmospheric nitrogen cannot be absorbed by plants and hence has to be converted into nitrates. This conversion takes place by nitrifying bacteria present in leguminous plants.

Animals (herbivores) consume the plants that have absorbed nitrogen/

When these animals die, decomposing bacteria acts on the dead organic matter, decomposition takes place through ammonification, converting the organic nitrates into ammonia

The nitrates are converted back again to nitrogen by the action of denitrifying bacteria.  

The nitrogen thus formed is released to the atmosphere

Because carbon can bond to one another, what shapes can they form?
faltersainse [42]
Correct answer - Tetrahedral, planar or flat.

Why? - When carbon forms single bonds with other atoms, the shape is tetrahedral. When two carbon atoms form a double bond, the shape is planar, or flat. Single bonds, like those found in ethane, are able to rotate.

Semmy [17]
The nurse can give the client antidepressants such Duloxetine. Even though one is not depressed, one can still take this as this can also alleviate pain. Another medication the client can take is an anti seizure medication. An example of this is Pregabalin. It would prevent nerves from sending pain signals to the brain thus can also help ease the pain of a person suffering from Fibromyalgia.
