← Nature & AnimalsWhich advantage is enabled within legume root modules via specific nutrient exchange?
A)Atmospheric nitrogen undergoing reduction✓
B)Increased phosphate uptake efficiency
C)Enhanced potassium soil absorption
D)Resistance to heavy metal assimilation
💡 Explanation
The reduction of atmospheric nitrogen is facilitated by nitrogen fixation within legume root nodules because rhizobia bacteria convert atmospheric N2 to ammonia via the nitrogenase complex. Therefore, plants gain usable nitrogen, rather than improved uptake limited to pre-existing soil compounds.
