Q

Nitrogen fixation

A

atmospheric nitrogen(N2) gas is converted into anomia (NH) or ammonium(NH4) by the bacteria in the soil or legume plants

22

nitrate is used as nutrients for plants which are eaten by animals

24
Q

Ammonification

A

animals matoblize proteins an form ammonia or die and decompose

25
Q

Denitrification

A

Nitrates are broken down by dentrifying bacteria and returned to the atmosphere as a gas

26
Q

Carbon Cycle

A

Photosynthesis
Cellular respiration
Assimilation
