The presence of nitrogen-fixing plants should benefit nearby individuals of other species, because nitrogen is a key nutrient--i

t is usually in very short supply. But nitrogen--fixing bacteria live inside tight nodules in the host plant's roots, and the host plant has to provide the bacteria with large quantities of sugar. Which of the following statements is correct?
Nitrogen will only become available to other, nearby plants when the nodules or the nitrogen-fixing plant itself dies.

Even when plants are young and nodules are just forming, huge quantities of nitrogen are being produced.

The nitrogen-fixing plant species has so much nitrogen that it readily leaks into the surrounding soil, making it available to nearby plants.

If nitrogen is released from the nodules into the surrounding soil, there is no cost to the host plant.

Answer:

The correct answer is "Nitrogen will only become available to other, nearby plants when the nodules or the nitrogen-fixing plant itself dies".

Explanation:

Nitrogen fixing bacteria maintain a symbiotic relationship with plants. Bacteria performs nitrogen fixation providing the plant with ammonia, while bacteria has a safe place and nutrients to prosper. This relationship is very intimate because it occurs at the root hair of the plant at structures called nodules. Therefore, nitrogen will only become available to other, nearby plants when the nodules or the nitrogen-fixing plant itself dies

Sugars are used for energy and what else??
skad [1K]

Answer:

The body uses sugars from carbohydrates which supply the brain with glucose as the brain uses it as a "fuel source".

<h2>Why is glucose so important for the brain?</h2>

Quick answer: It takes a lot of energy to receive, interpret, and send signals via your neurons. Glucose is the simples sugar that can be used to make energy.

Cells require energy to carry out their typical everyday tasks. The simplest sugar that our cells can utilize for energy is glucose. Since your neurons are specialized cells, many additional cells are also present to support or protect them. All of the senses you can experience utilizing incoming neurons (from the body to the brain) are transmitted to and interpreted by the brain, including touch, pain, vibration, temperature, smell, sight, hearing, taste, and others. Signal reception and interpretation need energy. Additionally, your brain instructs your body to "do" things, which uses energy. Additionally, you spend a significant portion of your waking hours "thinking," which consumes energy. This explains why 20% of the glucose in your body is used by our teeny, tiny, little brains.

Thank you,

Eddie

Rna primers must be present on which strand during dna synthesis?
Tanya [424]

Answer:Both on the leading strand and on each okazaki fragments of the lagging strand.

Explanation:

A primer is a short single-stranded RNA nucleotide that initiate DNA synthesis at the replication fork. Because DNA polymerase can not initiate replication on it own short strand of RNA primer synthesized by an enzyme RNA primase is needed to initiate DNA polynucleotide synthesis.

RNA primer is present on both leading and lagging strand.

RNA primer of about 10 nucleotides long are present on the leading strand and on each okazaki fragments on the lagging strand to initiate replication. The RNA primer is removed and replaced by DNA nucleotides by DNA polymerase.
