chris 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 cannot produce their own nitrogen - containing compounds. They obtain nitrogen by eating other organisms. Producers (like plants) absorb nitrogen from the soil (in the form of nitrates etc.). Organisms do not breathe in nitrogen from the atmosphere in a usable form (except some bacteria). And consumers do not produce nitrogen - containing compounds on their own.
