cycle

A

The nitrogen cycle fixes the nitrogen from the atmosphere into the soil for use by plants and animals.
They are then demineralized upon their death and released into the soil to release nitrogen gas into the atmosphere.
The cycle is a continuous process. Both aerobic and anaerobic processes occur in the soil, plants, and animals and back in the soil to the atmosphere.
