Answer:

Nitrogen fixation is the process through which nitrogen gas is converted into inorganic nitrogen compounds. A small amount of nitrogen gas is fixed by abiotic means such as lightning or ultraviolet radiation, which reacts with nitrogen gas in the atmosphere to produce nitric oxide.

Diff. Nitrification&Dentrificatio.

Nitrification.....

  • Nitrifying bacteria like Nitrobacter, Nitrosomonas.
  • Nitrifying bacteria like Nitrobacter, Nitrosomonas.Grows slowly. Requires aerobic condition
  • Requires aerobic conditionProvides nitrate to the plant, which acts as the important nitrogen source.

Denitrification.....

  • Denitrifying bacteria like Spirillum, Lactobacillus, Pseudomonas, Thiobacillus.
  • Grows rapidly.
  • Grows rapidly.Requires anaerobic condition.
  • Denitrification is used in wastewater treatment and is beneficial for aquatic habitats.

Organism involve in nitrification process......

bacteria like Nitrobacter, Nitrosomonas
