Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation 1. Rhizobium - Legume Symbiosis Many leguminous plant species can enter into a symbiotic relationship with root-nodule bacteria‚ collectively referred to as rhizobia. The legumes belong to the order Fabales‚ family Leguminosae (alternatively Fabaceae)‚ in eurosid clade I (Doyle and Luckow 2003). Traditionally‚ three main subfamilies are distinguished: Caesalpinoidae‚ Mimosoidae and Papilionidae. Only one nonlegume‚ the woody plant Parasponia sp.‚ can be nodulated

Empirical Formula of Magnesium Oxide Date: Aim: The aim of this experiment was to determine the empirical formula of magnesium oxide. Equipment: · Balance · Crucible and lid · Bunsen burner · Magnesium ribbon (0.2g) · Steel wool · Crucible tongs · Pipe clay triangle · Tripod Procedure: 1. Obtain a clean‚ dry crucible and lid‚ then heat them for approximately 5 minutes over a Bunsen burner 2. Clean the surface of a 20 cm strip of magnesium ribbon using steel wool 3. Coil

Taylor Schweigert Dr. Sherri Morris Section 02 The Importance of Nitrogen-fixing Symbiotic Extremophiles Extremophile: a word combination of the Latin extremus (extreme) and Greek philiā (love). Contrary to the average human‚ extremophiles love the extreme‚ preferring seemingly uninhabitable environments to resource rich habitats. These archaea are the toughest out there‚ and are found thriving in deep-sea thermal vents and sub-glacial lakes. A few of the outlandish environmental niches

Victoria MacDonald SCH3U Zegil Due May 5th‚ 2017 Magnesium Oxide Lab Purpose: To determine the composition by mass of magnesium oxide‚ the percentage composition‚ and the percentage yield. Hypothesis: The law of definite proportions states that a chemical compound always contains the same amount of proportions of elements by mass. Based on the law of definite proportions‚ the percentage composition of magnesium oxide should be 60.3% magnesium and 39.7% oxygen. Prediction: Based on the law of

Hydrogen is found in lipids‚ in the fat that we eat‚ and in saturated fat. There are a lot of hydrogen atoms in unsaturated lipids‚ but less hydrogen atoms in double bonded called polyunsaturated lipids. Nitrogen (N) Air is made up from 78% nitrogen and almost 21% oxygen. Our bodies don’t use the nitrogen‚ but we need the oxygen that passes into the body by moving across the lung walls in a process called diffusion. Calcium (Ca) Calcium is the most common mineral in the human body. Calcium is essential

Human Impact on the Carbon‚ Nitrogen‚ and Phosphorus Cycles Danielle Abbadusky Everest University Human impact on the cycling matter in ecosystems can change a lot of things. Humans can either help or hurt things. The carbon‚ nitrogen and phosphorus cycles are the three cycles of matter in ecosystems. What are these cycles? How do humans effect each one of these individual cycles? What are some examples of humans effecting these cycles? What is the carbon cycle? “Sequence of processes through

Nitrogen Cycle Questions 1. Nitrogen is both the __most abundant element__ and in organisms it is the raw material of two main macromolecules __ammonia and nitrite which build proteins and _nitrates which build your genetic material‚ DNA. 2. In the atmosphere it is found in the form of N2 which is __nitrogen gas____. 3. These Nitrogen molecules then need to go through a process called __nitrogen fixation__ in order to be converted into molecules that living organisms can use readily. 4. Two forms

Finding the formula of magnesium oxide Aims When magnesium is heated in air‚ it reacts with oxygen. During this oxidation reaction‚ magnesium oxide is produced. This increases the mass. If we know the mass of magnesium at the start‚ and the mass of magnesium oxide produced at the end‚ we can work out the mass of oxygen which has been combined with the magnesium. We can use these masses to work out the formula of magnesium oxide. Eye protection must be worn Apparatus Crucible and lid
