Solution

The correct option is B Soil
Soil is composed of mineral particles of various sizes, organic matter, water and air. Of all the minerals found in soil, nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium are the three most important nutrients that the plants actively extract from the soil. During lightning only nitrogen is produced, that too is absorbed from the soil.
