Unit 5Lesson 11Plant and Soil Science The Nitrogen Cycle
PSS.HO.1 Nitrogen cycle Nitrogen fixation Nitrogen-fixing bacteria Ammonification Nitrification Denitrification
PSS.HO.2 The pathway that nitrogen follows within an ecosystem The process by which gaseous nitrogen in the air is converted into ammonia Lives in the roots of legumes and convert atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia In the nitrogen cycle the formation of ammonia compounds The process in the nitrogen cycle by which nitrites and nitrates are produced A final step in the nitrogen cycle, during which nitrogen gas is returned to the atmosphere
