Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nitrogen fixation is the process where certain bacteria, such as Rhizobium, convert atmospheric nitrogen gas (N2) into ammonia (NH3) which can be used by plants to synthesize proteins and other important molecules. This process is a vital component of the nitrogen cycle and plays a crucial role in sustaining life on earth.
