Plants and animals die and decomposers break down their nitrogen containing molecules to ammonia. All animals get the nitrogen they need by eating plants, by eating other animals that ate plants, or by eating animals that ate animals that ate plants.
Nitrogen is required by plants and animals for protein synthesis

mostly from food.
well, herbivores eat plants (which have nitrogen in them due to help from nitrogen fixating bacteria) then other animals eat herbivores. Since animals are heterotrophs they have to get their nutrients from other organisms.
Animals and plants need nitrogen to live because proteins and other biological compounds contain nitrogen. In plants, nitrogen compounds perform photosynthesis. In humans, nitrogen is the basis for amino acids, the building blocks of genetic material.
Animals get their nitrogen from plants and by eating other animals
At the very basic level all DNA needs nitrogen. WIthout DNA there is no life.they need it to live

animals dont really need nitrogen but for plants, they need nitrogen and they get nitrogen usually in the form of nitrates or bacteria protein, by the work of nitrifying bacteria, putrefying bacteria and nitrogen fixing bacteria
Animals get nitrogen from plants.
