Essay About Carbon Dioxide And Organic Compounds

Nitrogen Cycle
Essay title: Nitrogen Cycle
Question1
A is not the answer because Nitrosomonas is a genus that oxidize ammonia or nitrate as an energy source. In doing so, they convert certain fertilizers to form that is readily leached from soil, and deplete O2 in waters polluted with ammonia-containing wastes. They are comprising ellipsoidal soil bacteria. Nitrosomonas are important in the nitrogen cycle by transforming ammonium into nitrite. Which means it is an autotrophic organism that produces organic compounds from carbon dioxide as a carbon source, using either light (photoautotrophs) or reactions of inorganic chemical compound such as nitrite (chemoautotrophs), as a source of energy. An autotroph is known as a producer in a food chain. Nitrosomonas utilizes the oxidation of inorganic compounds such as nitrite as an energy source are chemoautotrophs. A lithotroph is an organism which uses an inorganic substrate (usually of mineral origin) to obtain reducing equivalents for use in biosynthesis (e. g. carbon dioxide fixation) or energy conservation via aerobic or anaerobic respiration.
