Ca You Tell Me​

Answer 1

Rhizobium

Explanation

They contain symbiotic bacteria called rhizobia within the nodules, producing nitrogen compounds that help the plant to grow and compete with other plants. When the plant dies, the fixed nitrogen is released, making it available to other plants and this helps to fertilize the soil.

Answer 2

Answer:

Bradyrhizobium bacteria

Legume Nodule Formation. The Rhizobium or Bradyrhizobium bacteria colonize the host plant's root system and cause the roots to form nodules to house the bacteria (Figure). The bacteria then begin to fix the nitrogen required by the plant.
