The organisms that are involved in the movement of nitrogen between the air and soil and back to the air are plants and bacteria. When plants decompose they release nitrogen and bacteria fixes nitrogen back into the air.

Which type of bacteria return nitrogen to air?
nitrites
Which nutrient do organisms tend to get from their local ecosystem?
The nutrient that organisms get from their local ecosystem is phosphorous. Organisms also get nitrogen from the air and it can also be added to the soil.
Do most organisms take in nitrogen from the air or water and use it to carry out their process life?
yes!
What kind of bacteria put nitrogen bacteria put nitrogen back into the air?
Rhizobium
What are examples of nitrogen?
Nitrogen cycle is conversion of air nitrogen to soluble form of nitrogen and then back to air nitrogen. Lighting is part of nitrogen cycle. When an animal dies and the body decays the nitrogen in many forms in the animal body reached back to the place where it came from.
How does nitrogen get from organisms back into the atmosphere?
Nitrogen used by plants and animals is returned to the atmosphere by the action of bacteria. Bacteria break down proteins to obtain energy, releasing nitrogen back into the air in the process.
What is the large reservoir of nitrogen that is unusable by most organisms?
The air is 80% nitrogen but most organisms are able to extract it from the air.
How do humans and animals get nitrogen?
Nitrogen starts in soil and becomes useful nitrogen for plants and it gets passed on to animals. Decomposers would eat nitrogen-rich dead organisms and some of the nitrogen goes back into the soil.
What organisms are capable of converting gaseous nitrogen in the air into a form that other living organisms can use?
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria
What organisms are related to the nitrogen cycle?
All animals and plants. The air is 78% nitrogen.
Can most organisms can use free nitrogen air?
YES!
What is the transfer of nitrogen from air to soil to organism and back to air or soil?
nitrogen cycle.
What is the transfer of nitrogen from air to soil to organism and back to air and soil?
nitrogen cycle
Do most organisms use nitrogen directly form air?
Since the air around you is about 78% nitrogen gas, you might think it would be easy for organisms to retrieve nitrogen easily. However, most organisms cannot use nitrogen gas. Nitrogen gas is called "free" nitrogen because it's not combined with other atoms. Most organisms can use nitrogen only when it has been combined with other elements to form nitrogen-containing compounds. So, is that the answer you were looking for (possibly for homework)?
Which type of bacteria return nitrogen to air?
nitrites
Can most organisms use the free nitrogen in air?
why are you looking this up the answer it is yes because what is nitrogen going to do try to get air and then its is going to be all like sorry nitrogen I'm off limits!
What elements are most oganisms unabel to take from the atmosphere?
The nitrogen is about 78% in air but living organisms can not take from air.
