Which process returns nitrogen to the atmosphere, completing the nitrogen cycle?
Which process returns nitrogen to the atmosphere, completing the nitrogen cycle?
- Denitrification (correct)
- Nitrogen fixation
- Assimilation
- Nitrification
What is the importance of ammonification in the nitrogen cycle?
What is the importance of ammonification in the nitrogen cycle?
- It converts ammonia into nitrite and then into nitrate, which plants can readily take up from the soil.
- It incorporates nitrogen into biological tissues, essential for the growth and development of living organisms.
- It provides plants with a form of nitrogen they can absorb and use for growth.
- It returns nitrogen to the soil, making it available for reuse. (correct)
