In order for plants to assimilate nitrogen directly into their system, the nitrogen must be in the form of nitrates. Nitrogen in the air and ammonia from decayed matter in the soil is converted to ammonium by decomposers and nitrogen-fixing bacteria. The ammonium is further nitrified to nitrates by nitrifying bacteria. Finally, the nitrates can then absorbed by the plants.
Answer:
Burning fossil fuels moves carbon from the geosphere to the atmosphere.
Explanation:
- Fossil fuels such as coal, petroleum and natural gas are produced and stored in the geosphere. i.e. the part of the Earth that includes the Earth's interior, landforms, rocks and minerals.
- Fossil fuels, extracted from the geosphere are burned to generate energy.
- Combustion of fossil fuels releases the stored carbon into the atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide.
Grana, thykaloids and storma are components found in the chloroplast within plant cells
Answer:
Gravity is measured by acceleration that it gives to freely falling objects . At Earth's surface the acceleration of gravity is about 9.8 meters ( 32 feet) per second per second. Thus, for every second an object is in free fall, its speed increases by about 9.8 meters per second.
