Answer 2

Ammonification is formation of ammonia from nitrates by decomposers, so option a is the correct answer.

• Ammonification is the third step in the nitrogen cycle. By this process, organisms get the essential nitrogen that they need to survive.
• In ammonification, microscopic organisms like ammonifying bacteria or other types of decomposing microbes, break down nitrogen containing compounds from dead organic matter into its simpler form like ammonia.
• Ammonification is a process of the Nitrogen cycle.
• In this process, many chemical changes take place. Here in this process, NH2 groups are converted into NH4+ and ammonia is formed as the end product of this process.
