Patients with leukemia, a type of cancer that affects the blood, often exhibit suppressed immunity and problems with blood clotting. based on these two symptoms, which components of the blood are affected by this type of cancer? \

Hello,

The affected components of the blood would be the platelets and the leukocytes.

step 1: nitrogen fixation- conversion of atmospheric no₂ into forms useful to plants by lightning, bacteria, and cyanobacteria.

step 2: nitrification-process of converting ammonia to nitrite or nitrate.

step 3: assimilation-plant roots absorb new form of nitrogen.

step 4: ammonification-conversion of organic nitrogen to ammonia by bacteria involved in decomposition.

step 5: denitrification-bacteria turns the decomposed matter back into n₂o, which is released into atmosphere; repeat cycle.
