Much like a cell, a virus is able to grow and reproduce in large numbers

A virus is a microscopic nonliving parasite that only reproduces inside the cells of living hosts. Like cells, viruses have the ability to grow and reproduce within the host cell. When a virus infects a host cell, it injects its genetic material into the cell and forces the host cell to produce thousands of similar copies of the original virus.

i'd say that the moon rock is about 2.2 billion years old.

step 1: nitrogen fixation- conversion of atmospheric no₂ into forms useful to plants by lightning, bacteria, and cyanobacteria.

step 2: nitrification-process of converting ammonia to nitrite or nitrate.

step 3: assimilation-plant roots absorb new form of nitrogen.

step 4: ammonification-conversion of organic nitrogen to ammonia by bacteria involved in decomposition.

step 5: denitrification-bacteria turns the decomposed matter back into n₂o, which is released into atmosphere; repeat cycle.
