Answer:
Plants cannot themselves obtain their nitrogen from the air but rely mainly on the supply of combined nitrogen in the form of ammonia, or nitrates, resulting from nitrogen fixation by free-living bacteria in the soil or bacteria living symbiotically in nodules on the roots of legumes.

Explanation:
All plants under cultivation, except legumes (plants with seed pods that split in half, such as lentils, beans, peas or peanuts) get the nitrogen they require through the soil. Legumes get nitrogen through fixation that occurs in their root nodules.
