Bacteria in the soil converts this nutrient into a usable form. Plants take up the usable nutrient through the soil and assimilate it into proteins, making it part of the plant. An animal eats the plants, and the nutrient becomes part of the animal. When the animal dies, it decomposes, returning the nutrient back to the soil. Which cycle is being described?

Respuesta :

nitrogen cycle
Bacteria converts ammonium compound to nitrites .After that,nitrites are converted to nitrates which is taken up by the plants for synthesis of protein

Answer:

The correct answer is nitrogen cycle.

Explanation:

The most abundant element found in the atmosphere is nitrogen, it is the building block of nucleic acids and proteins. The nitrogen cycle refers to a composite biogeochemical cycle in which nitrogen gets transformed from its inert atmospheric molecular form into a component, which plays an essential function in the biological procedures.  

The nitrogen cycle comprises various stages like nitrogen fixation, nitrification, assimilation, denitrification, and ammonification.
