Explain the role of bacteria in the nitrogen cycle

Biology
1 answer:
Oksanka [162]2 years ago
4 0

Bacteria is important because this bacteria binds hydrogen molecules with the gaseous nitrogen to form ammonia in the soil.  During assimilation, or when plants take up nitrates from the soil, bacteria aid in the process with the plants in making ammonia. Animal wastes is also a major place where bacteria thrives and produces ammonia. The process in which assimilation occurs in plants, and then bacteria converts the nitrates to ammonia is called ammonification.  From the conversion of ammonia to nitrites, bacteria also aids in this process called nitrification. The nitrifying bacteria mostly present in soils, oxidize ammonia into nitrites, and from nitrites to nitrates.

Finally, the process of denitrification also has bacteria present to aid in converting nitrates back into a gaseous form of nitrogen in the atmosphere.

Movement of the chromosomes during anaphase would be most affected by a drug that
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

The options are missing, the options are:

A) prevents the duplication of centrosomes. B) prevents nuclear envelope fragmentation C) prevents shortening of microtubules. D) prevents attachment of the microtubules to the kinetochore. E) prevents nucleosome formation

The answer is C

Explanation:

Cell division is a characteristics of all living cells. Whether meiosis or mitosis, the chromosomes separate in the Anaphase stage. Prior to the anaphase stage is the metaphase, where spindle microtubules attach to the kinetochores of each chromosome and aligns them at the centre of the cell called METAPHASE PLATE.

Thus, since the aligning of chromosomes at the metaphase plate has to do with attachment of microtubules to chromosomes' kinetochores, the drug that will hinder movement of chromosomes to opposite poles will not stop formation of microtubules. Instead, it will prevent the formed microtubules attached to each chromosome from shortening, as it is the shortening of microtubules that facilitates the pulling apart of the chromosomes they are attached to.
