As the members of a given generation age, their instinct of social conservation becomes stronger, which inevitably and necessarily brings them into conflict with the normal attribute of youthâinnovation. Other important theorists of the 19th century were John Stuart Mill and Wilhelm Dilthey.
Plants require more than just water and sunlight to grow. They also require many nutrients found in the soil. One of the most important nutrients required for plant growth is nitrogen. Nitrogen is used to build plant proteins and nucleic acids, including DNA.
Nitrogen fixing plants donât pull nitrogen from the air on their own. They actually need help from a common bacteria called Rhizobium. The bacteria infects legume plants such as peas and beans and uses the plant to help it draw nitrogen from the air. The bacteria converts this nitrogen gas and then stores it in the roots of the plant. When the plant stores the nitrogen in the roots, it produces a lump on the root called a nitrogen nodule.
