Steps Involved in Nitrogen Cycle | Ecology

The following points highlight the six main steps involved in nitrogen cycle. The steps are: 1. Nitrogen Fixation 2. Nitrogen Assimilation 3. Ammonification 4. Nitrification 5. Denitriflcation 6. Sedimentation. Nitrogen Cycle: Step # 1. Nitrogen Fixation: Conversion of free nitrogen of atmosphere into the biologically acceptable form or nitrogenous compounds is referred to as nitrogen flxation. This process is of [...]

Nitrogen Cycle (With Diagram) | Plant Physiology

In this article we will discuss about the Nitrogen Cycle. Nitrogen Cycle: Nitrogen is the fourth most prevalent element in living systems. It is a constituent of a number of organic compounds like amino acids, proteins, nucleotides, nucleic acid, hormones, chlorophyll, many vitamins, etc. However, its availabil­ity from soil is limited and even for that plants have to compete with [...]
