Plants and animals depend on nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Plants and animals cannot use nitrogen gas directly. The nitrogen must be changed in to ammonia first. These nitrogen-fixing bacteria take nitrogen and convert it to ammonia for plant and animals to use.
if not from the atmosphere , they must depend on a process called nitrogen fixation. They get it from the soil. That's why farmers add fertilizer to the soil to increase nitrogen content
no plants and animals cannot use nitrogen straight out of the air every time we take a breath you breath it in but it goes through nitrogen fixation to let us humans animals and plants to use it.
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.

No, because the plants depend on the sun, the animals depend on the plants, we depend on both the animals and the plants. Der.
plants and animals
Animals only depend on plants if they are herbavores and if they do depend on plants they eat them to get the energy the plants make from sunlight using photosyntheses.
Yes. Animals that eat other animals depend on herbivores for food, which in turn depend on plants.
Plants get it from bacteria which live associated with their roots who take atmospheric nitrogen and fixate it (nitrogen cycle). Animals can only get it by ingesting organic compounds which contain nitrogen, such as plants and other animals which have eaten plants.
Many animals depend on plants. Most animals just eat them, but some animals will you plants as shelter, to hide from predators, and many other reasons.
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.
