The atmospheric nitrogen is converted into organic matter by plants with the help of Nitrogen fixation.
Explanation:
- Plants get their nitrogen from the soil and not directly from the air.
- Nitrogen fixation is a process by which nitrogen in the atmosphere is converted into ammonia.
- Various microorganisms convert ammonia to other nitrogen compounds that are easier for plants to use.
- In this way, plants get their nitrogen indirectly from the air via microorganisms in the soil and in certain plant roots.
- The microorganisms termed diazotrophs that include bacteria such as Azotobacter and archaea are useful in nitrogen fixation.
