Amino acids

Remember that the structure of amino acids have an amino group (NH₃--Cα)

Explanation:

Plants will absorb the radioactive nitrogen compounds as ammonium (NH4+)  nitrates (NO3-)and nitrites (NO2-). The radioactive Nitrogen will  found in amino acids because the absorbed nitrates, nitrites and ammonium undergo a process called assimilation. The  nitrates and nitrites are firstly reduced to ammonia. The ammonia is then assimilation is a pathway called glutamine synthetase-glutamate synthase (GS-GOGAT). IN this pathway the ammonia is incorporated into the amino group of glutamine using glutamine synthase enzyme. The process of transamination of the glutamine then creates many other amino acids.

What two air pollutants are associated with the formation of acid rain?
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain.

Answer:

Vascular Tissues

Explanation:

Angiosperms higher flowering plants it is most diverse group in a plant kingdom nearly 300,000 species of flowering plants are found under this kingdom.The angiosperms have specialised cells and tissues that carry out their metabolic functions and evolved vascular tissues (xylem and phloem) that translocate the water and nutrient to all parts of the plant. They are terrestrial, root system absorbs water and mineral from the soil. the shoot system supports and leaves involved in the process of photosynthesis
