Nitrogen cycle is all about the movement of nitrogen between various elements on Earth (like air, soil, living organisms etc.) The amount of nitrogen in the atmosphere remains constant.

  • Atmosphere has approx. 78% nitrogen.
  • Atmospheric Nitrogen is fixed into the soil
    • N2 fixing microbes convert atm. N2 into nitrogen compounds like NH3
  • Plants utilize nitrogen from soil through their roots
  • Animals utilize nitrogen, feeding on plants
  • When Plants & animals die, Nitrogenous wastes are returned to soil
    • Decomposers convert some part to nitrogen compounds to be used by plants
    • Denitrifying bacteria convert into atm. N2
