Which outcome occurs when drought limits the activity of soil bacteria near legume roots?

💡 Explanation

Reduced water limits bacterial metabolism affecting nitrogen fixation; therefore reduced symbiosis decreases nitrogen bio-availability, rather than increasing phosphate uptake or conferring disease resistances since lower bacterial activity directly inhibits nitrogen production rather than affecting other soil processes.
