Yes it can.
Basically, N2 is found in the air. Nitrogen fixation occurs when atmospheric N2 is converted to NH3.
Not sure of the exact mechanism but I am just guessing that it uses H2 in the air, adding a ton of energy to them and breaking the bond, releasing free radical H+ that then attaches itself to the atmospheric N2... something like that.
The immense power from the lightning breaks the nitrogen into separate atoms. These atoms join onto oxygen atoms, and being now polar, dissolve in the rain (which is also polar), and soak into the ground. This then is transfered around by bacteria in the soil until it is fit for the plant. The plant then absorbs it through its roots.
I hope this helped you. I just did a report on it! ;)
true lighting can turn nitrogen compounds into gas
The first step of the nitrogen cycle is nitrogen fixation.
Then cycle that depends on bacteria to convert nitrogen gas into ammonia is the nitrogen cycle. This is the part of the cycle called nitrogen fixation.
The nitrogen cycle describes the movement of nitrogen through different forms in the environment, including processes such as nitrogen fixation, nitrification, and denitrification.
Examples of nitrogen include nitrogen gas (N2) which makes up about 78% of Earth's atmosphere, ammonia (NH3) which is commonly used in fertilizers, and nitric acid (HNO3) which is used in the production of fertilizers and explosives.

it is in the nitrogen cycle
The first step of the nitrogen cycle is nitrogen fixation.
No it is not a sourse.But it fixes nitrogen
nitrogen fixation, denitrification, nitrification, amonification are the for steps of the nitrogen cycle.
Then cycle that depends on bacteria to convert nitrogen gas into ammonia is the nitrogen cycle. This is the part of the cycle called nitrogen fixation.
the nitrogen cycle...
The nitrogen cycle is essential to the maintenance of life.
The nitrogen cycle describes the movement of nitrogen through different forms in the environment, including processes such as nitrogen fixation, nitrification, and denitrification.
A Betta does not have a "nitrogen cycle"
No, the nitrogen cycle is a part of nature. It is nothing to be afraid of.
They are in the life cycle,the carbon cycle and the nitrogen cycle. Taylor,11, from Austin, Texas They are in the life cycle,the carbon cycle and the nitrogen cycle.
