Nitrogen is an essential element of amino acids. Amino acids are basic material for protein synthesis.Thus for synthesis of protein by both, plants and animals, need 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.
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.
Animals obtain nitrogen primarily through their diet by consuming plants and other animals that contain nitrogen-based compounds. Plants absorb nitrogen from the soil in the form of nitrates and ammonium, which they incorporate into proteins and nucleic acids. When animals eat these plants or other animals, they break down the proteins and nucleic acids to access the nitrogen, which is then used to synthesize their own molecules. Additionally, some animals can also obtain nitrogen from symbiotic relationships with certain bacteria that fix atmospheric nitrogen.
In rainforests where there is loads of leeching, plants get their nitrogen from other dead plants, where a nitrogen cycle is established
Animals obtain the nitrogen needed to make proteins and nucleic acids by consuming foods that contain nitrogen, such as plants or other animals. The nitrogen is then broken down and used by the body to build the necessary molecules for growth and repair.

Animals get nitrogen from 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.
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.

Nitrogen is required by plants and animals for protein synthesis

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
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.
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
