Nitrogen comprises 78% of Earth's atmosphere and serves as an essential building block for all life forms, forming a key component of proteins, DNA, and nucleic acids. The nitrogen cycle makes this abundant element usable for plants and animals.
The slide outlines the nitrogen cycle in a workflow table with stages, processes, and key agents. It covers nitrogen fixation (N₂ to NH₃ by bacteria/lightning), nitrification (NH₃ to NO₃⁻ by Nitrosomonas/Nitrobacter), assimilation (NO₃⁻ to proteins by plants/animals), ammonification (organic N to NH₃ by decomposers), and denitrification (NO₃⁻ to N₂ by bacteria).
{ "headers": [ "Stage", "Process", "Key Agents" ], "rows": [ [ "Nitrogen Fixation", "Atmospheric N₂ → Ammonia (NH₃)", "Bacteria (e.g., Rhizobium), Lightning" ], [ "Nitrification", "Ammonia (NH₃) → Nitrites (NO₂⁻) → Nitrates (NO₃⁻)", "Nitrosomonas, Nitrobacter" ], [ "Assimilation", "Nitrates (NO₃⁻) → Amino acids/Proteins", "Plants, Animals" ], [ "Ammonification", "Organic N → Ammonia (NH₃)", "Decomposers (bacteria, fungi)" ], [ "Denitrification", "Nitrates (NO₃⁻) → N₂ (atmosphere)", "Denitrifying bacteria (e.g., Pseudomonas)" ] ] }
The slide's left column details natural nitrogen cycle processes: fixation by bacteria, nitrification to nitrates, plant assimilation, decomposer ammonification, and denitrification back to N2. The right column highlights human disruptions like fertilizer-induced eutrophication, NOx emissions from factories, agricultural runoff, and deforestation/livestock altering cycle balance.
| Natural Key Processes | Human Impacts & Disruptions |
|---|---|
| Nitrogen Fixation: Bacteria convert atmospheric N2 to ammonia. Nitrification: Ammonia oxidized to nitrites then nitrates. Assimilation: Plants absorb nitrates for growth. Ammonification: Decomposers recycle organic N to ammonia. Denitrification: Bacteria return nitrates to N2 gas. | Fertilizers: Excess causes algal blooms and eutrophication. Factories: NOx emissions acidify rain, pollute water. Agriculture: Runoff overloads ecosystems. Deforestation/Livestock: Reduces fixation, boosts ammonia emissions disrupting cycle balance. |
