Nitrogen Fixation
Nitrogen Fixation
Nitrogen Fixation :
Nitrogen present in the atmosphere cannot be absorbed directly by most plants and animals. It can be used only by a few simple organisms. The rest can use nitrogen only when it is converted into nitrates and nitrites. Certain microorganisms do this.
The process of converting free nitrogen of the atmosphere into compounds of nitrogen is called nitrogen fixation.
This is the process by which nitrogen of the nonliving world enters the living system. Nitrogen fixation occurs in three ways:
(i) Atmospheric Fixation: The high temperatures and pressures produced during lightning allow nitrogen to combine with oxygen in the atmosphere to form oxides of nitrogen. These dissolve in rain water and get soaked into the soil, and form nitrates.
Nitric acid is carried by rain water to the soil where it forms nitrates. The nitrates get stored in the soil and the atmospheric nitrogen is fixed. The nitrates present in the soil are then absorbed by plants.
Which of the following are correct : (a) The fixation of nitrogen by some nitrogen-fixing bacteria is called biological nitrogen fixation. (b) The process of converting free nitrogen of the atmosphere into compounds of nitrogen is called nitrogen fixation. | |||

8thMy experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
