The nitrogen molecules present in air can be converted into nitrates and nitrites by
(a) a biological process of nitrogen fixing bacteria present in soil
(b) a biological process of carbon fixing factor present in soil
(c) any of the industries manufacturing nitrogenous compounds
(d) the plants used as cereal crops in field
Answer: A
Solution.
Nitrogen fixation process converts nitrogen present in atmosphere into nitrogen compounds.
Nitrogen fixation can be done by non-biological and biological process both.
Lightning is a non-biological process which does nitrogen fixation.
Biologically, some bacteria in the soil does this nitrogen fixation.
Hence, the correct option of this question is option A.
