In nitrogen cycle, which of the following plays an important role

A

Rhizopus

B

Nitrobacter

C

Mucor

D

All green algae

Solution

(b)Nitrobacter is a $N_2$ fixing organism, it fixes atmospheric free $N_2$ into soluble salts like nitrites and nitrates. The fixed $N_2$ is absorbed by plants when herbivores feed on these plants, the  $N_2$  flows on the carnivores through food chain hence it is important for the  $N_2$  cycle.
