Question

Why do plants require nitrogen and how do they get it?

Answer 1

Answer:

• Plants obtain nitrogen through a natural process. Bacteria in the soil convert the nitrogen to ammonium and nitrate, which is taken up by the plants by a process of nitrogen fixation.
• All plants need nitrogen to make amino acids, proteins and DNA, but the nitrogen in the atmosphere is not in a form that they can use
