Question
chrs drew a diagram to compare the ways in which different organisms obtain nitrogen. which label belongs in the area marked x? breathe in from atmosphere produce themselves eat other organisms absorb from soil
Consumers obtain nitrogen by eating other organisms. Producers absorb nitrogen from the soil. Organisms do not produce nitrogen themselves. Organisms that breathe in from the atmosphere (like animals for oxygen) do not get nitrogen in a usable form directly from breathing in atmospheric nitrogen (N₂) as most organisms cannot use N₂ in that form. So the unique way for consumers (compared to producers in the given options) is eating other organisms.
