Answer:
Nitrogen compounds in the soil ---> Plants
Nitrogen compounds in the soil ---> Denitrification bacteria (convert nitrogen compounds to N2)
Nitrogen in the atmosphere ---> Nitrogen fixing bacteria (convert N2 to nitrogen compounds)
Explanation:
This model in the image section is portraying the nitrogen cycle, which involves the transfer of nitrogen within biosphere, atmosphere, and lithosphere etc. The abiotic components of this model are the non-living parts while the biotic components are the living parts.
In this model, the movement of nitrogen from abiotic or non-living component of an ecosystem to the biotic or living component is as follows:
Nitrogen compounds in the soil ---> Plants
Nitrogen compounds in the soil ---> Denitrification bacteria (convert nitrogen compounds to N2)
Nitrogen in the atmosphere ---> Nitrogen fixing bacteria (convert N2 to nitrogen compounds)
