where do plants get their nitrogen

Answers

Answer 1
Although there's plenty of nitrogen in the air, it's not in a form plants can use. They can only absorb nitrogen in the form of ammonium, nitrite, and nitrate. One way plants have access to these forms of nitrogens is decomposition of organic matter by soil organisms. Another source of usable nitrogen are mutualistic relationships between plants and bacteria. By providing nitrogen-fixing bacteria a place to live and feeding them with carbohydrates, plants get nitrogen in the form of ammonium. Plants that can do this include most legumes which form relationships with Rhizobium bacteria, and other plants like alder, bayberry, California lilac, and Russian olive that support Frankia bacteria on their roots.
There are also free-living nitrogen-fixing bacteria, as well as cyanobacteria that grow on the surface of plants or the soil, that add small amounts of plant-usable nitrogen to the soil. Lightning also generates usable nitrogen compounds.
Chemical fertilizer is a major source of plant-usable nitrogen. But other human activities, like the burning of fossil fuels and livestock operations, inadvertently produce widespread, nitrogen-enriched rainfall.

Answer:

Key Points

Nutrients and water are absorbed through the plants root system.

Carbon dioxide is absorbed through the leaves.

From seedling to mature plant, there is a complex dynamic between plants and their environment (soil and atmosphere).

Key Terms

germinate: to sprout or produce buds

photosynthesis: the process by which plants and other photoautotrophs generate carbohydrates and oxygen from carbon dioxide, water, and light energy in chloroplasts

nutrient: a source of nourishment, such as food, that can be metabolized by an organism to give energy and build tissue

Explanation:

Plants are unique organisms that can absorb nutrients and water through their root system, as well as carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Soil quality and climate are the major determinants of plant distribution and growth. The combination of soil nutrients, water, and carbon dioxide, along with sunlight, allows plants to grow. In order to develop into mature, fruit -bearing plants, many requirements must be met and events must be coordinated.

The rate is slower because smaller grapes have a larger surface-area-to-volume ratio than the larger grapes do.
B
The rate is slower because larger grapes have a larger surface-area-to-volume ratio than the smaller grapes do
С
The rate is slower because smaller grapes can expand more than larger grapes to hold excess water.

Answers

Answer:

They are all used as primary energy sources during exercise. They are each stored in the liver to be used as a ready energy reserve. They each can be broken down to provide ATP to cells.

Answer:

The statement that correctly describes what proteins, lipids, and glycogen have in common is C. they each can be broken down to provide ATP to cells. Proteins, lipids, and glycogen all consist of a group of molecules, which means they can be broken down to these smallest items. ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, is a molecule that can be found in anything, and which we need for everything because it is a source of energy in living beings.

As you are walking home from studying at the library late one evening, you get startled by a strange sound behind you. This activates your sympathetic nervous system. What affect does this change have on stroke volume

Answers

Answer:

It has a positive change in stroke volume.

Explanation:

The amount of blood pumped out of the left ventricle of the heart during each systolic cardiac contraction is referred to as stroke volume. During systolic contraction, the heart pumps blood into circulation.

Sympathetic nerves also innervate or stimulate the middle muscular layer of the heart wall. Therefore, an increase of activity in the sympathetic nervous system will trigger an increase in the force of contraction of the heart and, therefore, increase stroke volume. An increase in stroke volume also translates to the pressure of blood being pumped through the arteries.

Jackson uses a battery operated toothbrush that is rechargeable. What happens when Jackson plugs his toothbrush into an electrical outlet to recharge it?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The type of battery that Jackson's toothbrush is using is a secondary cell; this is because it can be recharged (meaning the electrochemical reactions taking place in the battery can be reversed). Batteries generally work in such a way that, while using it, electrons move from the anode of the battery to the cathode. In primary cells, this process continues until there are no electron to be transferred from the anode to the cathode and then the battery "dies" and is disposed. But in a secondary cell, just like the battery of Jackson's toothbrush, when the battery is been recharged, the electrons start moving from the cathode back to the anode; which makes electrons available again in the anode for use.

Disscus the importance of phytoplankton to the composition of the earth's atmosphere?​

Answers

Answer:

Phytoplankton are essential for atmospheric and climate regulation.

Explanation:

Phytoplankton are autotrophs, they use solar energy, along with inorganic carbon and water to produce their own food source via photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, they also produce oxygen, integral for the planet's atmospheric composition.

At their large biomass, phytoplankton contribute to a majority of the oxygen used by consumers (most animals).

             6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light  →  C6H12O6 + 6 O2

Carbon Dioxide + Water + Light       Glucose + Oxygen

Along with fossil fuels, human agricultural practices have contributed large amounts of CO2 to the atmosphere, This causes global warming, a major environmental crisis- global warming also leads to landmass loss, biosphere disruption and reduces biodiversity in mass extinction events.

Phytoplankton carbon cycling produces organic matter which functions as carbon sinks in our oceans. Thus, as phytoplankton use large amounts of CO2, they help combat warming cycles, along with producing O2 in atmospheric and climate regulation.
