Answer:Conversion of ammonia into nitrate is known as nitrification.
Explanation:
Nitrification is a process of conversion of ammonium ions to nitrites and nitrites to nitrates. It is a two-step process. The bacteria that carry out this process are called as nitrifying bacteria. Nitrosomonas, Nitrosospira, Nitrosococcus convert ammonia into nitrites. Nitrobacter, Nitrospina, Nitrococcus convert nitrites into nitrates.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter.'
