Once nitrogen is fixed, it is subject to several chemical reactions which can convert it to different organic or inorganic forms. Mineralization occurs in soil as microorganisms convert organic nitrogen to inorganic forms.
Nitrogen fixation is the natural process by which atmospheric nitrogen (N2) is converted into ammonia (NH3), or nitrate forms. This step is important for the continuation of ecosystems because plants depend on nitrates and nitrites, and nitrogen gas is not a usable form for plants to intake.
