in each step. What will be an ideal response? Question 2 Diagram the hydrological cycle. Include the terms evaporation, transpiration, percolation, groundwater, runoff, condensation, and precipitation. What will be an ideal response? Title: Describe the five steps of the nitrogen cycle. Include the bacteria and other organisms that are ... Post by: Fnsame on Mar 29, 2018 Concepts to Consider: Nitrogen is fixed by various bacteria, including cyanobacteria, into ammonia and organic forms; nitrification is the conversion of ammonia to nitrate, which is utilized by plants in the process of assimilation; animals also assimilate nitrogen by eating plants; bacteria convert organic nitrogen into ammonia by ammonification; bacteria further reduce nitrate into gaseous nitrogen in the process of denitrification, a net loss of nitrogen to the ecosystem. Concepts to Consider: Starting with a cloud, the water condenses and ultimately falls to Earth either as precipitation over land or the ocean; water percolates through the soil and may reach the groundwater, be taken up by plants, or run off into bodies of water; water taken up by plants may be transpired and reenter the atmosphere in this way. Water also reenters the atmosphere via evaporation from bodies of water Title: Describe the five steps of the nitrogen cycle. Include the bacteria and other organisms that are ...
