Which metabolic consequence occurs when soil nitrification reduces symbiotic bacteria functions?

A)Decreased nitrogen fixation in plant roots
B)Enhanced photosynthetic efficiency in leaves
C)Increased decomposition by soil fungi
D)Elevated carbon sequestration into biomass

💡 Explanation

Reduced nitrification decreases plant signaling to nitrogen-fixing bacteria in root nodules; nitrogen fixation cannot establish efficiently because the bacteria lack signals for root colonization and function; therefore, it limits growth rather than enhanced photosynthesis.
