C. Legume producers moving nitrogen into the soil
The process of nitrogen fixation involves certain plants, particularly legumes like peas and beans, forming a symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing bacteria. These bacteria convert atmospheric nitrogen (N2) into a form that plants can use, usually ammonium (NH4+). Legume plants, with the help of these bacteria, take up nitrogen from the air and make it available in the soil, benefiting both the plants and the surrounding ecosystem.
