A

`NO_(2)^(-)`

B

ammonia

C

`NO_(3)^(-)`

D

glutamate

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`underset("Nitrogen")(N_(2))tounderset("Dimide")(N_(2)H_(2))tounderset("Hydrazine")(N_(2)H_(4))tounderset("Ammonia")(2NH_(3))`
The fixation of atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia is given as
`N_(2)+8e^(-)+8H^(+)+16ATPunderset("Nitrogenase")overset(MO-Fe)to2NH_(3)+H_(2)+16ADP+16pi`
The process in which atmospheric nitrogen gets concerted into inorganic nitrogenon (nitrate, ammonia) compounds through microorganisms is called biological nitrogen fixing.
