The majority of Earth's atmosphere contain 78% is nitrogen, The Nitrogen cycle is the geochemical cycle in which nitrogen is converted into multiple chemical forms. Nitrogen cycle occurs in terrestrial and marine ecosystem. Nitrogen can be converted through both biological and physical process. The processes that are involved in nitrogen cycle are fixation, ammonification, nitrification, and denitrification.
There is limited amount of nitrogen that is useful but <u>increase of fossil fuel combustion, use of artificial nitrogen fertilizer</u> have dramatically increased the amount of nitrogen in nitrogen cycle.

<h3>⇝ <u>Epidermis</u> :</h3>
Protective tissues includes epidermis & cork. Epidermis is basically a simple permanent tissue, protective in function. It forms one-cell-thick covering over all the parts of plant.
<h3>⇝ <u>Characteristics of Epidermis</u> : </h3>
- Epidermis is formed of living cells, arranged in a single layer.
- In aerial parts, epidermis is covered with a waterproof and noncellular waxy covering called cuticle.
- Cells form a continuous layer, but in leaves epidermis has small openings called stomata.
- Each stoma is guarded by a pair of bean-shaped guard cells which govern opening & closing of stomatal aperture.
<h3>⇝ <u>Functions of Epidermis</u> :</h3>
- Epidermis protects the underlying tissues from mechanical injury, chemicals & infection.
- Cuticle of epidermis protects against water loss & desiccation. It checks the rate of transpiration & evaporation and prevents wilting.
- Stomata in the epidermis of leaves help in gaseous exchange during respiration & photosynthesis.
