Can plants and and animals survive without bacteria?
No. They could not under the current regime of life on Earth. Bacteria, in their symbiotic, detrivorous, and other roles are critical to the life functions of plants and animals. If all bacteria were to die out, it is likely that everything living on the planet would die out. Oddly enough, the bacteria could survive without animals or plants.
Where on Earth would you find Bacteria?
every where plants, your body, paper, every where. Even in your food. But don't get sick by reading that, sometimes bacteria is good for you.
What would happen if all the nitrogen-fixing bacteria disappeared?
If all nitrogen-fixing bacteria disappeared, plants would struggle to access nitrogen in a usable form, which is essential for their growth. This would lead to nitrogen deficiency in plants, affecting their health and productivity. Ultimately, it would disrupt the entire food chain and ecosystem.
How would having cuticle scraped off the surface of plants leaves affect?
It would increase transpiration and wilting .
Which characteristics of the plants would most likely affect the plants' growth in this location?
The amount of sunlight, soil quality, and water availability are the characteristics of the plants that would most likely affect their growth in a specific location. Plants need adequate sunlight for photosynthesis, fertile soil for nutrients, and a proper amount of water to thrive.
A chemical that harms prokaryotic cells would only affect fungi plants animelia bacteria?
A chemical that harms prokaryotic cells would specifically impact bacteria, which are prokaryotic organisms. It would not affect fungi, plants, or animals, as they are eukaryotic organisms.
What would be in the water if there was no plants and animals?
If there were no plants and animals in the water, there would be an abundance of bacteria. Many plants and animals help to keep down bacteria growth in waters.
What would you consider bacteria to be?
A grouping of life like animals and plants.
What do bacteria do that is especially helpfull to plants?
There's tons of types of bacteria and tons of types of plants. not all bacteria help plants (in fact, many bacteria hurt plants), and not all plants can be helped by bacteria. it would be almost impossible to list every bacteria that helps plants, but one example would be the denytrifying bacteria that live on the roots of most legumes (plants such as peas, beans, and peanuts). these bacteria convert nitrogen from the soil (that gets into the soil when animal carcases rot or when lightning strikes the ground). Legumes can't use pure nitrogen. these bacteria combine it with oxygen and make it NO2 or NO3, which are both forms of nitrogen that plants can use. once the plant is done using the NO2 or NO3, different types of bacteria (called denitrifying bacteria) will convert the NO2 and NO3 back to pure nitrogen and put it back into the atmosphere where it can be used by other organisms. these are just two of the millions of types of bacteria in God's creation, but they are extremely helpfull to plants.
How would deforestation affect plants?
it can make it die
How do antibiotics affect bacterial growth?
they affect it because without the anitbiotic the bacteria would grow and make babies.

Ionization process with metals to bacteria?
As far as I know, bacteria are living organisms. The process you describe seems unlikely to produce a living organism. There may be processes that would affect bacteria, but your question is vague as to the manner in which you would like the bacteria to be affected.
What do scientists expect to happen at the end of the experiment on how oil spills affect plants?
That the plants would be dead
How would limiting factor affect a plants survival rate?
transpiration
How will increasing temperatures affect plants and animals?
Like i would know!
How would vacoules in plants serve defense animals that eat them?
because it help clean the bacteria
