THe bacteria that lives in the nodules of legumes are the only ones able to fix nitrogen gas into ammonia, which is later fixed by other bacteria in the soil to nitrites and nitrates that the plants can use.

some bacteria also performs denitrification, which converts ammonia back to  nitrogen gas, allowing the cycle to continue

lots of points Viruses and bacteria can infect human cells. Bacteria are living organisms, while viruses are not. How do you thi
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

When the virus enters a living cell (a human cell, if the virus infects humans, or a bacterial cell, if the virus infects bacteria) it reprograms that cell and turns the cell into a virus factory. Adaptive Immunity: All organisms have different types of immunity to protect themselves against infection.

While both can cause disease, viruses are not living organisms, whereas bacteria are. Viruses are only "active" within host cells which they need to reproduce, while bacteria are single-celled organisms that produce their own energy and can reproduce on their own.

As you might think, bacterial infections are caused by bacteria, and viral infections are caused by viruses. Perhaps the most important distinction between bacteria and viruses is that antibiotic drugs usually kill bacteria, but they aren't effective against viruses.

Some bacteria help to digest food, destroy disease-causing cells, and give the body needed vitamins. Bacteria are also used in making healthy foods like yogurt and cheese. But infectious bacteria can make you ill. They reproduce quickly in your body.
