- break down dead organic matter and waste matter from organisms to CO2, H2O and ions F.2.2: Draw and label a diagram of the nitrogen cycle F.2.3: State the roles of Rhizobium, Azotobacter, Nitrosomonas, Nitrobacter and Pseudomonas denitrificans in the nitrogen cycle The Nitrogen Cycle
The nitrogen cycle. Nitrogen compounds found in cells include proteins. Nitrogen from the air is converted into soluble ions that plant roots can absorb.
