Nitrogen is extremely important to living material; in fact plants‚ animals and humans could not live without it. Sprent (1987) argued that nitrogen cycle is the most important process to living organisms after the carbon cycle.

The Nitrogen Cycle Nitrogen fixation Atmospheric nitrogen must be processed‚ or "fixed" to be used by plants. Some fixation occurs in lightning strikes‚ but most fixation is done by free-living or symbiotic bacteria. These bacteria have an enzyme that combines gaseous nitrogen with hydrogen to produce ammonia‚ which is then further converted by the bacteria to make their own organic compounds. Conversion of N2 The conversion of nitrogen (N2) from the atmosphere into a form readily available
