PPT-Effects of Nitrogen Fixing Bacteria on Algal Growth

Noah Donnenberg Central Catholic High School Grade 11 The purpose of this experiment is to examine and quantify the influence of nitrogen fixing bacteria on the uptake of nitrogen derived from ammonium phosphate and consequently the proliferation of an algal model. Bacteria, Protists, Fungi, and Plants. 1. What . protists. uses a . pseudopod. to move and capture food?. An Amoeba. 2. What does the name streptococcus tell you about the bacteria?. The shape of the bacteria is spherical or round.. Factors that . Disturb . Biogeochemical . Cycles. Disturbing the Carbon Cycle. Natural Events. Forest fires – release large amounts of carbon dioxide. Volcanoes – break down rock containing carbon and releases it into the atmosphere, the ash also keeps the sun from reaching plants. Fixing Life.

Why Beans?. What can bean plants do that most other plants can't. ?. . No, they don't grow giant stalks to the clouds. Bean plants and other legumes (plants that have their seeds in pods) can use the nitrogen in the air to grow. It takes the help of special bacteria friends in the soil, and this relationship is unique to the legumes. To make protein. Enzymes. Antibodies. Muscle.
