← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when soil lacks nitrates within a symbiotic nitrogen fixation system?
A)Increased fungal enzyme production occurs
B)Higher legume nodule respiration declines✓
C)Reduced bacterial carbon sequestration develops
D)More potassium translocation accumulates rapidly
💡 Explanation
Legume nodule respiration declines because the rate of nitrogen fixation decreases due to the reduced presence of soil nitrates acting as the root trigger for nodule production; therefore, energy usage is lower, rather than increased, enzyme output or impacts involving any other element.
