For the last 30 years, human use of fertilizers has had a significant impact on the nitrogen cycle. Which statement explains how fertilizers impact an ecosystem?
O Fertilizers increase the amount of fixed nitrogen available in the ecosystem.
O Fertilizers decrease the amount of nitrogen fixed by organisms living in the ecosystem.
O Fertilizers kill off important nitrogen fixing bacteria.
Fertilizers decrease the amount of fixed nitrogen available in the ecosystem.

this protocol provides a detailed procedure for nucleoprotein extraction from cultured cells and tissues in an efficient manner.

it provides an alternative energy pathway for the reaction to proceed.

a catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction but is not consumed during the course of the reaction.

catalysts increase the rate of reaction without being used up. they do this by lowering the activation energy needed. with a catalyst, more collisions result in a reaction, so the rate of reaction increases. different reactions need different catalysts.

a catalyst works by providing an alternative reaction pathway to the reaction product. the rate of the reaction is increased as this alternative route has a lower activation energy than the reaction route not mediated by the catalyst.
