The transfer of nitrogen from the atmosphere to plants and back occurs through a process called nitrogen fixation. This can happen through the action of nitrogen-fixing bacteria that convert nitrogen gas into a form that plants can use. Once plants assimilate this nitrogen, it can be returned to the atmosphere through processes like denitrification or can be transferred to other organisms through the food chain.
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.
some plants have bacteria in their roots which contain nitrogen when plants want nitrogen they exchange their food made them with nitrogen. Example: pea plants contain bacteria called rhizobium which contains nitrogen
In rainforests where there is loads of leeching, plants get their nitrogen from other dead plants, where a nitrogen cycle is established
Plants mainly obtain nitrogen in the form of nitrates from the soil through their roots. This nitrogen is then used by plants to build proteins and other essential molecules. When plants die or shed leaves, nitrogen is returned to the soil through decomposition, where it can be taken up by other plants.

Plants cannot directly use nitrogen gas (N2) from the air because they lack the enzymes required to convert N2 into a form (like ammonia or nitrates) that they can assimilate. Therefore, plants rely on nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the soil to convert atmospheric nitrogen into a usable form. This nitrogen fixation process allows plants to obtain the necessary nitrogen for growth and development.
Are you on about the Nitrogen cycle? If this is the case, Nitrogen can be transferred into the soil from animal deification, or Nitrogen ions can be transferred through a lightening storm and rain drops.

Plants do not actually get their nitrogen from the atmosphere. They get it in compounds in the soil through their roots. Some plants form symbiotic relationships with bacteria in the soil. The bacteria draw nitrogen from the air and form nitrogen compounds. The plants can then use the nitrogen.

There are nitrogen fixing plants, such as legumes, that will add nitrogen to the soil naturally. When these plants die, they release nitrogen into the soil, making it available for other plants.
