A. plants in other habitats obtain nitrogen from bacteria in their root nodules. B. insects in other habitats do not contain as much nitrogen. C. insects are more mobile and hard to catch in non-swampy areas. D. it is more energy efficient to absorb nitrogen from soils that are not deficient of nitrogen
