Nitrogen Quizzes & Trivia

Nitrogen (N) is one of the building blocks of life: it is essential for all plants and animals to survive. It is found in all living systems as part of the composition of biological compounds. Nitrogen makes up around 78% of the air you breathe. Fascinating, right? So, what do you know about nitrogen? Here are a few sample questions for you to see how much you know about this subject: What is reactive nitrogen? What is virtual nitrogen? What can you do to reduce nitrogen pollution? How do organisms use nitrogen? How animals can get their “organic nitrogen compounds”? Take this challenge and show us how much you know about nitrogen. Our special quizzes await you.

Do you know anything about nitrogen fixation? It is a procedure by which molecular nitrogen in the air is converted into ammonia or related nitrogenous soil compounds. Nitrogen fixation is crucial to life because fixed inorganic...
