Answer:

Because through them plants are able to supply their nitrogen needs and provide this element to humans and other animals whose nitrogen is essential.

Explanation:

Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) is considered, after photosynthesis, the most important biological process on the planet. It is based on the fact that some microorganisms, known as diazotrophic, are able to break the bond that joins the two atoms of atmospheric nitrogen (N2) into ammonia (NH3), which is assimilable by plants. If the association between these microorganisms and plants is efficient, the fixed N can supply the needs of the plant, eliminating the use of nitrogen fertilizers and thus offering economic and ecological advantages. In addition, through food, plants provide nitrogen to humans and other animals.

Ever heard that kids are naturals when it comes to learning a language? Or maybe you know someone who gets easily discouraged from attending a second language course because they say they’re too old. Whatever you might have heard about this, whether you can remember or not, I’m positive it’s related to one of the most famous linguistics debates, which has been around since the 1960s.

What is the greatest current threat to the loss of Earths biodiversity
luda_lava [24]
The greatest current threat to the loss of the Earth's biodiversity is global warming. This is because when the ice melts, the cold comes down to us and makes us have rainy summers and very early snow and cold springs and cold autumns. And when the ice melts enough, water will start to come down and flood countries and cities, such as Manhattan. Scientists are predicting that California will break away from America.

Why are fungi fossils so rare?
Volgvan
The reason as to why fungi fossils seem so rare is that they are usually microscopic and often difficult or impossible to identify. Not much information on fungi fossils has been documented. This could be because fungi fruiting bodies consist of soft, fleshy and easily degradable tissues which due to their poor integrity do not keep or preserve as well as animal tissue. Even when available, it takes a trained eye to recognize fungal fossils. Not many people have the training and expertise to recognize the fossils.
