N2 molecules break apart via nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Other living entities such as plants and animals ingest nitrogen in nitrate-containing compounds. Organic matter decays via decomposers.
N2 is formed via denitrifying bacteria.

How does nitrogen get in the earths atmosphere?
Nitrogen gets into the earth's atmosphere through the nitrogen cycle.
Can you put the step of nitrogen cycle in order starting with the step that removes nitrogen from the atmosphere?
N2 molecules break apart via nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Animals ingest nitrogen in nitrate-containing food after plants use nitrogen containing compounds. Organic matter decays via decomposers. N2 is formed via denitrifying bacteria.
How is the phosphorus cycle like the nitrogen cycle?
Their resemblance is only a fact that the ratio of Nitrogen and Phosphorus remains constant on earth. The phosphorus and nitrogen cycle both are utilized by organisms, and in order to get the required nutrients from the atmosphere.
What is the major process which adds CO2 to the atmosphere?
Photosynthesis is a process that removes co2 from the atmosphere.
Why Nitrogen is the most common element in the air .why do bacteria play a role in the nitrogen cycle?
Several bacteria can fix the nitrogen fom atmosphere.
How does nitrogen get in the earths atmosphere?
Nitrogen gets into the earth's atmosphere through the nitrogen cycle.
What cycle does not cycle in the atmosphere?
What is nitrogen fixation

What is the cycle involving the exchange of nitrogen between organisms and the atmosphere?
nitrogen cycle
What cycle does the atmosphere not play a role in?
In nitrogen cycle
What is the transfer of nitrogen from the atmosphere to plants and back to the atmosphere or directly into plants again?
Nitrogen cycle
What are some similarities between carbon cycle and the nitrogen cycle?
both cycles transfer either carbon or nitrogen from the ocean to the atmosphere or from the atmosphere to the ocean.
What are the 4 steps of the nutrient cycle?
1. Nitrogen molecules are split apart 2. Nitrogen moves from soil to plant material 3. Dead animals decompose 4. Gaseous nitrogen released
Which parts of the nitrogen cycle are involved in moving nitrogen from the atmosphere into the soil?
2 and 4
Name three processes in the water cycle and state whether each process removes water from the atmosphere or returns it to the atmosphere?
Evaporation-removes waterCondensationprecipitation-Returns water
What is different about the phosphorus cycle as compared to the water carbon and nitrogen cycle?
The atmosphere is not involved in the phosphorus cycle.
What is different about the phosphorus cycle as compared to the water-carbon nitrogen cycle?
The atmosphere is not involved in the phosphorus cycle.
