About this document
Nitrogen Cycle Overview for Class 8 by Anju is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses the nitrogen cycle in 3 steps: 1) Nitrogen fixation occurs through biological processes like Rhizobium bacteria and lightning, which trap atmospheric nitrogen and convert it into useable nitrites and nitrates in the soil. 2) Nitrogen assimilation is when plants and animals absorb nitrogen compounds and use it to make proteins. 3) The nitrogen is then returned to the atmosphere through a series of processes: ammonification by bacteria, nitrification by Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter
