Question

Define Ammonification, Nitrification and Denitrification.​

Answer 1

Answer:

1] Decomposition with production of ammonia or ammonium compounds especially by the action of bacteria on nitrogenous organic matter is called Ammonification.

2] Nitrification is the biological oxidation of ammonia to nitrite followed by the oxidation of the nitrite to nitrate occurring in separate organisms or direct ammonia oxidation to nitrate in comammox bacteria.

3] Denitrification is defined as the “microbial reduction of nitrate or nitrite coupled to electron transport phosphorylation resulting in gaseous N either as molecular N2 or as an oxide of N.”
