Nitrogen cycle

The first video about The Carbon Cycle, I learned from this video the Carbon is the basic building block of life, and there are these atoms are unique in every place on earth. Carbons forms the flora and fauna the earth, and are also stored in the ocean and the atmosphere, and the planet 's crust. Carbon atom can spend millions of years moving through the ground in a complex cycle. This conceptual animation provides an example of the different parts of the carbon cycle. The arrows indicate the…

Nitrogen (N₂) is a colorless, odorless, largely inert gas with a hexagonal structure that is essential to life on earth. This nonmetal is number seven on the periodic table; in its neutral state, it has seven protons, seven neutrons, seven electrons, and an average atomic mass of 14.0067 amu. The electron configuration of this element in ground state is 2-5. Its discovery, safety, availability, and uses are important in understanding this element and its significance. Nitrogenous compounds…

components of the ecosystem. This is the cycle of nitrogen, phosphorus and carbon being converted into organic substances of plants and animals that are released back into the environment. There are three ways that human activities cause an imbalance of biogeochemical cycling on a daily basis. The carbon cycle (organisms in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems exchange carbon dioxide with the atomosphere) (essentials of biology, 2015), the phosphorus cycle (phosphates flow into large bodies…

and an unsettled magnetosphere (Odenwald). Scientists discovered that the Auroras are made from the flow of the charged particles that were entering the atmosphere. They as well came to the discover that the auroras came and went with the sunspot cycle. By the 20th century, scientists made Aurora’s in their private labs in order to get an understanding of how the auroras work and how they come about. Once television and the fluorescent lamps were created, they found it easier to understand and…

In problem one, we were simulating an ammonia production by reacting nitrogen and hydrogen in a reaction called Haber process. Haber process is a very economic exothermic reaction to produce ammonia by reacting nitrogen and hydrogen using a metal catalyst in high pressure and temperature. Nitrogen was obtained from the air and therefore, some argon would be included in this simulation. On the other hand, hydrogen was obtained from the cracking of petroleum. The simulation process started where…

need certain macronutrients and micronutrients. They need the macronutrients: nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, calcium, sulfur, magnesium; and the micronutrients: boron, chlorine, manganese, iron, zinc, copper, molybdenum, and nickel. (3). Fertilizer enhances the growth rate of plants. Fertilizer adds nutrients and modifies the water retention and aeration of plants. Fertilizer contains three main macronutrients: nitrogen for leaf growth; phosphorus for the development of roots, flowers, seeds,…

The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of changing soil textures and nutrient availabilities upon biomass allocation within Brassica rapus. From the data collected, we can conclude that soil texture and it’s influence upon nutrient availability is significant in determining biomass allocation within B. rapus. In our study, we found that soil texture primarily determined root biomass while the degree of nutrient availability, provided by fertilization, primarily determined…

agricultural research shows that deliberately increasing SOC raises the health and amount of food produced of crops and improves pastureland for grazing livestock. Decomposition of plant and animal material in the soil also releases other nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphates, which are vital for plant growth. SOC also changes the overall soil composition it increases the amount of water that can be absorbed and stored, improves gas exchange, and breaks up the soil, making it easier for…

Earth, a planet that once was devoid of human, an organism that destroys anything and everything in its path, is currently infected with it. After a prosperous five billion years, Earth is sinking and anything on it will go down too. Everyday, Earth is suffering from an endless beating of human destruction: forests are mowed for land, coals are burned for energy, and oceans are polluted for space. The consequence doesn 't only hurt the Earth itself but everything on it. Such large-scale…

revealed existence of a nitrogen isotope sensitive band from a peak/trough at 1334/1309 cm-1 demonstrating that there is nitration of the vinyl group to some extent at pH 7.5 without nitrite coordination to the heme. This result was consistent in both the high and low frequency resonance spectra. At pH 5.5, the difference in traces of the high frequency RR spectra demonstrated formation of a 6cLS heme species and presence of two peak/trough features suggesting the nitrogen and oxygen isotope…
