How does removing trees affect nitrogen cycling in a forest ecosystem?

Chemistry

Answer:

Deforestation can directly affect the nitrogen cycle within a forest ecosystem. It is because the nitrogen is used by the micro-organisms such as nitrogen fixing bacteria that helps in converting the atmospheric nitrogen into useful ammonia that are taken up by the plants, in order to carry out the process of photosynthesis.

By cutting down the trees and plants, these cycling of nitrogen will be disturbed and also these nitrogen containing articles will be eroded and eventually will mix up with the rivers and stream affecting the aquatic ecosystem.

Thus, by cutting down the trees, the nitrogen cycle will be disrupted in a forest ecosystem.

Explanation:

The roots of trees in a forest are colonized by symbiotic fungi called mycorrhizae. These fungi are significant nitrogen fixers because they harbor nitrogen-fixing bacteria. They convert atmospheric nitrogen into nitrates and nitrites that can be absorbed by plants. The plants use these forms of nitrogen to build biomolecules such as DNA and amino acids.This nitrogen is transferred up the food chain. Eventually the nitrogen is again recycled by denitrifiers when the organisms die.

Removing trees will disrupt the symbiotic relationship with mycorrhizae, stime the nitrogen cycle in the forest.

Place the following substances in the following order: soluble, somewhat soluble, and insoluble.
dimulka [17.4K]
C- Sugar is very much soluble (example- putting sugar in tea), sand is definately not soluble (example- a sandy beach) and cornstarch is the last one, so logically it should be somewhat soluble.

How does the concentration of a gas in solution change when the partial pressure of the gas above the solution increases?
irakobra [83]
Because the concentration of molecules in the gas phase increases with increasing pressure, the concentration of dissolved gas molecules in the solution at equilibrium is also higher at higher pressures
