Answer:

Nitrogen fixation

Explanation:

Certain soil bacteria, e.g., <em>Azobacter spp</em> can combine free nitrogen of the atmosphere with oxygen to form nitrates. This is called <u>nitrogen fixation</u>. Other nitrogen-fixing bacteria such as Rhizobium form symbiotic unions with the roots of leguminous plants called root nodules. They fix nitrogen to form nitrates which are used up by the host plant. Nitrifying soil bacteria, e.g., <em>Nitrobacter </em>convert nitrites to nitrates in a process called <u>nitrification</u>.

What are 4 phrases describing osmosis
babunello [35]
Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a semi-permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides.It may also be used to describe a physical process in which any solvent moves across a semipermeable membrane (permeable to the solvent, but not the solute) separating two solutions of different concentrations.Osmosis can be made to do work.

Osmotic pressure is defined as the external pressure required to be applied so that there is no net movement of solvent across the membrane.
