What is denitrification

Biology
1 answer:
nadezda [96]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

Denitrification is basically a biochemical phenomenon where nitrate is used by the bacteria living in the soil for the process of their respiration instead of using Oxygen from the air, consequently, the nitrates are converted into nitrous oxide and nitrogen gas. The process of denitrification is accelerated mostly in the wet and warm soil where there is lot of nitrate available.

This process is exhibited by Alkaligenes, Pseudomonas and Bacillus etc. Most of the bacteria involved in this process are facultative aerobially heterophs who has the ability of switching to denitrification from normal respiration when they find that the normal oxygen is running out.

Which condition is a cause of impotency in men
daser333 [38]
<span>Atherosclerosis is a common cause, because there is a lack of blood flow in the person's body, and this can cause a male to be impotent. 

Diabetes is also a common cause because once again it causes less blood flow. 

In a younger man, a cause could be anxiety. This is because nervousness and being anxious can lessen blood flow.

If you have choices, I suggest choosing one that has to do with less blood flow happening, which that is the main cause.

I hope that this could possibly help you with your studies, and have an amazing day. If you have any more questions, send me a pm. </span>

What is the difference between static and current electricity? give an example of each
Alenkasestr [34]
Static Electricity - the word static means 'at rest' - this kind of electricity exists when objects separated by an insulator has a build up of opposite charges. Because the attraction between these charges is so strong, they can flow even through great insulators. Ex: lightning, friction

Current Electricity - it makes electronic devices possible. There is a constant flow of charges in this type of electricity. In contrast to static electricity, current electricity is changing, dynamic and always on the move. Ex: starting a car, watching TV, using an electric stove.
