Answer:

A. It allows plants to use nitrogen to grow.

Explanation:

However, plants can't directly use nitrogen to grow. The bacteria need to convert atmospheric nitrogen ( N2 gas) into a form that plants can use.

Nitrogen fixation is a symbiotic relationship between plants and microorganisms of nitrogen fixers, which in the process of symbiosis perform the binding of nitrogen, which enters the earth from the air (atmosphere).

It is a reduction process of converting the gaseous form of nitrogen from the air into the ammonia form that is available to plants.

Most bacteria are heterotrophic decomposers, which means they depend on other organisms for food and feed on dead matter.

How do glycolysis, pyruvate processing, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain work together to provide energy for th

Ivahew [28]

When the cell gains glucose, the process of glycolysis occurs and then the glucose is broken down into pyruvate.

Now, in pyruvate processing, Acetyl CoA is produced and used in the Krebs Cycle.

During that process, NADH and FADH2 are made and go into the electron transport chain. That is where water and ATP are made.

All foods can be measured on the pH scale to determine if they have the right amount of acidity to support bacteria growth. 7.0

ZanzabumX [31]

In fact, there are bacteria that grow in all kinds of pH, from the most acidic to the bad alkaline. Depending on the pH at which they live, bacteria can be classified as neutrophil, acidophilic and alkalineophilic.

But in general, when we talk about bacteria that are present in foods, they tend to grow in a pH range between 5 and 9, so they are considered as neutrophil. This can vary by species and other factors such as temperature and available nutrients.
