Plants primarily obtain nitrogen from the soil in the form of nitrates and ammonium, which are produced through the decomposition of organic matter and the activity of nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Animals, in turn, acquire nitrogen by consuming plants or other animals, incorporating the nitrogen from their food into their own bodies. Additionally, some plants can form symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria, allowing them to directly access atmospheric nitrogen through root nodules. Overall, nitrogen cycling in ecosystems ensures that both plants and animals have access to this essential nutrient.
What else can I help you with?
How do plants get nitrogen compared to how animals get nitrogen?
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.
What are two functions of plants and animals in the nitrogen?
plants and animals
How does nitrogen from the air get into the bodies of plants and animals?
When the animals breathe in nitrogen it goes into their bodies so when they die and decompose the nitrogen they breathed in is now in the soil and also when they fertilize on the land.
How do plants and animals get nitrogen is not from the atmosphere?
In rainforests where there is loads of leeching, plants get their nitrogen from other dead plants, where a nitrogen cycle is established
Can humans get the nitrogen they need to exist in the air?
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.

What is the source of nitrogen for animals?
Animals get nitrogen from plants.

What is the atosphere on Mars?
it is mostly made of carbon dixode, nitrogen and argon
How do plants and animals differ in the ways they obtain nitrogen?
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.
How do other animal the nitrogen they need?
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.

Why do plants and animal and other organisms need nitrogen?
Nitrogen is required by plants and animals for protein synthesis
How do plants and animals get nitrogen is not from the atmosphere?

Can nitrogen in soil be used by plants or animals?
Nitrogen is everywhere But somehow, nitrogen has to get from the atmosphere into a form that our body can use.I also think that nitrogen in soil can be used by plants not animals
Can humans get the nitrogen they need to exist in the air?
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.
How do plants and animals get nitrogen if not from the atmosphere?
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
