B. bacteria that convert ammonia into nitrites and nitrates are found in the soil  

This statement best demonstrates a way that the geo-sphere is involved in the nitrogen cycle.

A nitrogen cycle is defined as the movement of nitrogen between the atmosphere, biosphere, and geo-sphere in different forms. Ammonia is converted to nitrates by nitrifying bacteria in the soil. Then the plants absorb these nitrates from the soil and use these to build up proteins.

<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>B. bacteria that convert ammonia into nitrites and nitrates are found in the soil.</h3><h2>Explanation:</h2>

Bacteria living in the soil in root nodules of various plants are directly involved in the nitrogen cycle. The nitrifying bacteria "<em>Nitrobacters" </em>and "<em>Nitrosomonas"</em> can fix atmospheric nitrogen and can convert it into nitrates and nitrites. As plants can not directly fix that atmospheric nitrogen so these <em>Nitrobacters</em> and <em>Nitrosomonas </em>who lives in symbiotic relation in their root nodules do this nitrogen fixation for them. So these bacteria provide them nitrates and nitrates that plants can directly uptake and can use in their essential metabolic cycles. In this way, Geosphere plays a critical role in nitrogen fixation.

If a natural disaster caused all warbles to go extinct, why would the natural disaster not kill all living organisms?
likoan [24]

Answer:

Living organisms that are able to adapt to the environment (natural disaster) will increase in number while the ones such as warbles who can't adapt will die and go into extinction.

Explanation:

Natural selection can be defined as a biological process in which species of living organisms having certain traits that enable them to adapt to environmental factors such as predators, competition for food, climate change, sex mates, etc., tend to survive and reproduce, as well as passing on their genes to subsequent generations.

Simply stated, natural selection entails the survival of the fittest. Therefore, the species that are able to adapt to the environment will increase in number while the ones who can't adapt will die and go into extinction.

Additionally, due to genetic variation within populations, some living organisms have a better chance of possessing good or beneficial traits being passed from the parent organism to her offsprings which enables them to survive a natural disaster.

Hence, if a natural disaster caused all warbles to go extinct, the natural disaster may not kill all living organisms due to natural selection.
