Nitrogen can form covalent bonds.
nitrogen can be converted to liquid but not to solid form
We get nitrogen in a usable form from our food.
A pentavalent atom is one that can form 5 chemical bonds, for example nitrogen in HNO3, phosphorus in PCl5.
No; nitrogen can form single, double, or triple bonds.

Conversion of inert elemental nitrogen gas into biologically usable form is called nitrogen fixation. Organism that performs nitrogen fixation is Rhizobium Leguminous.

Nitrification can occur in drinking water. In water distribution systems where chloramines are used as the secondary disinfectant, the presence of free ammonia can sometimes act as a substrate for ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms. The subsequent reactions can lead to the depletion of the disinfectant residual in the system.
The body stores excessive Vitamin A in the liver for later use if needed. Vitamin D however needs to be converted to a different form to be biologically active. This conversion after it leaves the liver, occurs in the kidney where it is converted to 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol, a biologically active form.
In the form of nitrates and nitrites of ammonia
There are two forms of vitamin A: retinoids (biologically active) and carotenoids (non-biologically active). Beta carotene generally functions as an antioxidant, though it can be metabolized to a biologically active form of vitamin A. Sources of retinoids include liver, eggs, fish oils, and fortified milk. Sources of carotenoids include leafy, dark green and dark orange vegetables and fruits.
There are exactly twenty amino acids that are the molecules that make up (comprise) the biologically active proteins found in and around The Cell.

The links in a protein chain are called amino-acids. Out of the millions possible, there are just twenty biologically active amino-acids.
No. Prostaglandins form a group of biologically active lipids that are derived, in humans, from arachidonic acid (5,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid), a C20 polyunsaturated fatty acid that has four nonconjugated double bonds; and that are named by reference to a hypothetical compound, called prostanoic acid.
Nitrogen in any pure form is an element, not a compound. However, at standard temperature and pressure, nitrogen exists predominantly as divalent molecules.
