Biosphere - Nitrogen Cycle, Microorganisms, Atmosphere

Role of Organisms in Nitrogen Cycle · Nitrogen-fixing bacteria, which convert atmospheric nitrogen to nitrates · Bacteria of decay, which convert decaying

Figure 2: In the nitrogen cycle, nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the soil or legume root nodules convert nitrogen gas from the atmosphere

nitrogen cycle Nitrogen fixation generally refers to the process in which atmospheric nitrogen is converted into ammonia Conversion of atmospheric N to ammonia

cell cycle Nitrogen Cycle · The nitrogen cycle fixes the nitrogen from the atmosphere into the soil for use by plants and animals · They are then demineralized upon their
