Answer:
Nitrogen fixation also refers to other biological conversions of nitrogen, such as its conversion to nitrogen dioxide. Nitrogen fixation is a process by which nitrogen (N 2) in the atmosphere is converted into ammonia (NH 3).
Explanation:
Nitrogen fixation is a process by which nitrogen in the air is converted into ammonia (NH₃) or related nitrogenous compounds. Atmospheric nitrogen is molecular dinitrogen, a relatively nonreactive molecule that is metabolically useless to all but a few microorganisms. Biological nitrogen fixation converts N₂ into ammonia, which is metabolized by most organisms.
