Nitrogen must be in the compound form before it is used by plants or animals
Fixation
Nitrate or Ammonium salts. These are called Fixed Nitrogen.

Nitrogen is required by plants and animals for protein synthesis
Nitrogen available to plants as Nitrates supplies the wherewithall for plants to produce foliage.
Herbivores get the nitrogen they need by eating plants.
Plants need nitrogen to build proteins and nucleic acids.
Plants require nitrogen to grow and be healthy, as it is an essential nutrient for their growth and development. Nitrogen is a key component of chlorophyll, the compound that allows plants to photosynthesize. Some plants can also form symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria to access nitrogen from the air or soil.
Nitrogen fixation is the process in which certain bacteria in the soil or root nodules of leguminous plants convert free nitrogen gas (N2) into a usable form such as ammonia (NH3) or nitrate (NO3-). This conversion allows plants to take up the nitrogen they need for growth and development.
