Denitrification is the -Reduction of NO-2 to ammonia by bacteria in the soilConversion of ammonia to amino acidsConversion of ammonia and nitrates to gaseous nitrogenOxidation of ammonia to nitrate

Question

Toppr Admin · Accepted Answer

Denitrification is the process of conversion of nitrates and ammonia into nitrogen gas, which is returned back to the atmosphere. This is caused by bacteria and they obtain their energy by this process. A small amount is converted to usable forms by lightning in a process called atmospheric nitrogen fixation.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
