What might happen in a community if all the nitrogen fixation bacteria died?

All life forms in that community would go extinct, because they wouldn't be able to get any fixed nitrogen.

organisms in in the community would get sick or die

What will happen if nitrogen fixation does not take place?
if nitrogen fixation does not take place nitrates will not be taken if nitrates are not there so there is no photosynthesis so it metaboills and if photosynthesis is not there so there is no life thats what nitrogen fixation not allows in nitrogen cycle
How are the process of nitrogen fixation and denitrification different?
nitrification= it is the conversion of ammonia first into nitrites then into nitrates by nitrifying bacteria. dentrification=it is the conversion of nitrites and nitrates into free nitrogen.
What processes happen to gaseous nitrogen before plants can use it to grow?
Fixation
what process must happen to gaseous nitrogen plants can use it to grow?
Fixation
What must happen for plants to use nitrogen in the atmosphere?
Fixation
What plants must happen to gaseous nitrogen before plants can use it to grow?
Fixation
What must happen for pure nitrogen in the air to be able to be used by plants?
What must happen for pure nitrogen in the air to be able to be us eby plants/ A. Photosynthesis B. Fixation C. Precession D. Respiration
What would happen if the bacteria that cause denitrification were removed from the nitrogen cycle?
denitrification is soil bacteria converting nitrates into nitrogen gas, is process releases nitrogen into the atmosphere. If there wasn't any bacteria, there would be no process and therefor the nitrogen wouldn't make it into the atmosphere.
Why cant plants absorb gaseous nitrogen?
plants and animals are not adapted to absorb nitrogen from the air. Nitrogen Fixation is a process where nitrogen is changed into a more reactive form for plants and animals to use. There are several ways where nitrogen fixation can happen: lightning, bacteria, carnivorous plants and industrial fixation.
What if bacteria lost the ability to fix nitrogen?
Everybody would die. However, this is not likely to happen.
