What is nitrogen-fixation?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Nitrogen fixation : Symbiotic bacteria living in the root nodules of leguminous plants like peas, beans, absorb nitrogen directly from air and convert into nitrates. Thereafter, the plants convert it into proteins. Nitrogen is returned to the soil when plant and animal matter decays. This decomposition work is done by organisms called denitrifying bacteria which reconvert dead organic tissue into its constituent nitrogen.
