Question

Question 4) Which of the following occurs during nitrification?

A: Waste is converted to fertilizer and nitrogen for plants

B: Waste is converted to fertilizer and nitrogen for fish

C: Fertilizer and nitrogen is converted to waste

D: Nitrogen is converted to fertilizer for plants.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Nitrification - This is the process by which ammonium gets changed into nitrates by bacteria. Nitrates are what the plants can then absorb. ... They absorb nitrates from the soil into their roots. Then the nitrogen gets used in amino acids, nucleic acids, and chlorophyll.

Answer 2

This process occurs in the nitrogen cycle.(naturally) Nitification- After conversion of atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia(through lightning or decomposition of wastes) by some bacterias it forms nitrites, this formation of nitrites is called nitrification and later conversion of nitrites into nitrates is also called nitrification.

(Nitrification)

Ammonia(Nh3)→Nitrites(NO3)→Nitratates(NO4) (Nitrification)

Here nitrogen from ammonia gets oxidised and forms nitrites and nitrates.

Acc..to me, Here (a) option is most suitable among all.

Real answer be like- Wastes like excretory products, dead plants/animals(this waste actually is the nitrogenous waste) which gets converted into ammonia and then nitrites and nitrates.

option (a) is correct.
