Nitrogen Cycle Steps and Their Relevance in the Ecosystem

Every living thing needs nitrogen This activity will teach students about how living things are able to get the nitrogen they need to survive

Step 1- Nitrogen Fixation- Special bacteria convert the nitrogen gas to ammonia which the plants can use ▫ Step 2- Nitrification- Nitrification

cell cycle Nitrogen gas from the air is converted to nitrate compounds by nitrogen-fixing bacteria close nitrogen-fixing bacteriaThe bacteria found free-living in the soil

nitrogen cycle The nitrogen cycle is a cyclic process where the nitrogen travels from inorganic form in the atmosphere and to the organic way in the living organisms The
