Plants use nitrogen in the form of:
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is D Nitrates
Plants cannot use the atmospheric nitrogen directly. Nitrogen fixation is a biological process and the initial stage of nitrogen cycle which converts atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia. This ammonia is converted into nitrite and then into nitrate by the process of nitrification. Nitrate is the form of nitrogen which is directly absorbed and used by the plants for making amino acids and proteins.
