Nitrogen is returned to the atmosphere during the nitrogen cycle in a process referred to as denitrification.

<h3>What is denitrification?</h3>

It is a process whereby nitrogen becomes mineralized from nitrogenous compounds. In other words, it is the reduction of nitrates to produce elemental nitrogen which is returned to the atmosphere.

Denitrification is a microorganisms-driven process. The nitrates are made to pass through a series of reactions with intermediate products before finally leading to the production of elemental nitrogen.

More on the denitrification process can be found here: brainly.com/question/13624886
