How do plants obtain nitrogen

Plants obtain nitrogen through a natural process. ... Bacteria in the soil convert the nitrogen to ammonium and nitrate, which is taken up by the plants by a process of nitrogen fixation. All plants need nitrogen to make amino acids, proteins and DNA, but the nitrogen in the atmosphere is not in a form that they can use

Explanation:

I like your question this time Savannah.

The answer is: Plants get their nitrogen from the soil and not directly from the air.

From here, various microorganisms convert ammonia to other nitrogen compounds that are easier for plants to use. In this way, plants get their nitrogen indirectly from the air via microorganisms in the soil and in certain plant roots.

Hope it helps:D
