Which of the following is a process of the nitrogen cycle that involves the conversion of nitrogen gas to ammonia?   a.Nitrogen fixation   b.Nitrification   c.Ammonification   d.Denitrification
Which statement offers the best explanation of how deforesting hubbard brooks watershed (W2) affected the nitrogen cycle? 1. Denitrification rates increased, resulting in a decrease in the export of ammonium 2. Microbial immobilization rates increased, resulting in a decline in stream nitrogen 3. Mineralization rates increased, causing the export of ammonium to increase 4. plant uptake nitrogen stopped, resulting in an increase in the export of nitrate
