Figure 46.17 Which of the following statements about the nitrogen cycle is false? Ammonification converts organic nitrogenous matter from living organisms into ammonium (NH4+). Denitrification by bacteria converts nitrates (NO3-) to nitrogen gas (N2). Nitrification by bacteria converts nitrates (NO3) to nitrites (NO2-). Nitrogen fixing bacteria convert nitrogen gas (N2) into organic compounds.

Matter is continually recycled between abiotic and biotic components of Earth's ecosystem in biogeochemical cycles. the various cycles differ from one another in several key aspects of their storage, conversion and modes of transport. A. Describe the critical processes by which nitrogen is cycled through the biotic and abiotic components of earth’s atmosphere and identify the primary storage sink for nitrogen
Describe how human activities disrupt the nitrogen cycle.
Draw out the the eight parts of the nitrogen cycle. Explain each of the parts with 2 sentences.
Discuss nitrogen cycle
Involves the participation of decomposers a. water cycleb. carbon cyclec. nitrogen cycled. phosphorus cyclee. none of the cyclesf. all of the cycles
Which statement offers the best explanation of how deforesting hubbard brooks watershed (W2) affected the nitrogen cycle? 1. Denitrification rates increased, resulting in a decrease in the export of ammonium 2. Microbial immobilization rates increased, resulting in a decline in stream nitrogen 3. Mineralization rates increased, causing the export of ammonium to increase 4. plant uptake nitrogen stopped, resulting in an increase in the export of nitrate
