Plants transfer nitrogen in the nitrogen cycle through assimilation.
Most plants get nitrogen from fertilizers. Some plants can have a process called nitrogen fixing in which nitrogen from the is turned into ammonium compounds. Animals get their nitrogen from food, by eating plants and other animals.
some plants have bacteria in their roots which contain nitrogen when plants want nitrogen they exchange their food made them with nitrogen. Example: pea plants contain bacteria called rhizobium which contains nitrogen
when animals eat plants,they get nitrogen compounds that their bodies need.plants do not make these nitrogen compounds. so from where do plants get their nitrogen compounds/ from the air
In rainforests where there is loads of leeching, plants get their nitrogen from other dead plants, where a nitrogen cycle is established

Plants do not actually get their nitrogen from the atmosphere. They get it in compounds in the soil through their roots. Some plants form symbiotic relationships with bacteria in the soil. The bacteria draw nitrogen from the air and form nitrogen compounds. The plants can then use the nitrogen.
Plants can get nitrogen from some of fertiliser
There are nitrogen fixing plants, such as legumes, that will add nitrogen to the soil naturally. When these plants die, they release nitrogen into the soil, making it available for other plants.
Nitrogen fixing is a process whereby certain bacteria convert basic nitrogen to nitrogen compounds that can be absorbed by a plant's root system, for use by the plant. You can compare this to human metabolism; the human body needs iron, but we cannot eat nails or iron bars to accomplish this. We must first convert the iron to compounds that our body can assimilate, digest and absorb.
Nitrogen available to plants as Nitrates supplies the wherewithall for plants to produce foliage.
