Nitrogen Cycle steps:

N molecules breaking apart via nitrogen-fixing bacteria.

Animals ingest nitrogen in nitrate-containing food after plants use nitrogen-containing compounds.

The organic matter decays via decomposers

N2 is formed via denitrifying bacteria.

Explanation:

The nitrogen-fixing bacteria removes atmospheric nitrogen by fixing nitrogen through nitrification. The atmospheric nitrogen cannot be absorbed by plants and hence has to be converted into nitrates. This conversion takes place by nitrifying bacteria present in leguminous plants.

Animals (herbivores) consume the plants that have absorbed nitrogen/

When these animals die, decomposing bacteria acts on the dead organic matter, decomposition takes place through ammonification, converting the organic nitrates into ammonia

The nitrates are converted back again to nitrogen by the action of denitrifying bacteria.  

The nitrogen thus formed is released to the atmosphere

What is one way that fish interact with a coral reef?
Ksivusya [100]

Fishes use the coral reef for shelter during the day as well as food.

<h3>Information related to coral reef</h3>

One way that fish interact with a coral reef is that fish hide within the coral. Coral reefs are an important resource for large-bodied fish in the Caribbean. They use the reef for shelter during the day.

Coral reefs are important ecosystems because coral reefs contain a great diversity of life. The color of coral depends on the type of polyp present. Coral polyps are tiny little animals that can live individually, or in large colonies that comprise a coral reef.

Great Barrier Reef is considered as the largest coral reef on Earth. Coastal land development, silt runoff, water pollution by humans, damage from scuba diving, boating, and fishing are the threats to the health of coral reef.
