Hi puneet,
Nitrogen is very important element present on the earth it has the variety of uses which are both useful for plants and animals.nitrogen in plants is used in the way that they need nitrogen as a macronutrient for their nutrition.
Now let's understand the meaning of nitrogen cycle.
Nitrogen cycle is biogeochemical cycle by which nitrogen is converted into various chemical forms as it circulates among the atmosphere and marine ecosystem.The conversion of this nitrogen can be carried out by both the biological and chemical process.The steps in the nitrogen cycle include nitrogen fixation, nitrification, ammonification, and denitrification,
FOLLOWING ARE THE PROPER STEPS...
1.During the first step, nitrogen fixation, special bacteria convert nitrogen gas into ammonia which is used by plants.
2.The second step, nitrification, involves converting ammonia into nitrite ions that are taken by plants as nutrients
3.After living organisms have used the nitrogen, the next step in the cycle is ammonification, in which decomposing bacteria convert the waste compounds that are rich in nitrogen into simpler compounds.
4.The last step in the nitrogen cycle is denitrification, wherein bacteria convert simple nitrogen compounds back into nitrogen gas, which then returns to the atmosphere and starts the cycle again.
