Answer & explanation:

1.  In the nitrification process, the oxidation of ammonia (NH₃) occurs, converting it to nitrite and, subsequently, to nitrate. This process is performed by chemosynthetic bacteria (also known as nitrifying bacteria), that is, they use the energy released in nitrification to synthesize their organic substances.

2. Denitrification occurs when bacteria in the soil called denitrifiers use nitrates and turn them into nitrogen gas. Denitrification ensures the return of nitrogen to the atmosphere.

3. The fixation of atmospheric nitrogen occurs mainly with the help of bacteria. These bacteria form nodules in the cortical region of the roots of these plants, where they act by capturing atmospheric nitrogen and transforming it into ammonia (NH₃), which will be used by plants.

Which compound is a reusable, complex protein that speeds up chemical reactions?
Irina-Kira [14]
Hello there! 

The answer is enzymes. 
Enzymes are biological catalysts, which means they decrease the amount of activation energy needed to start a reaction, therefore speeding up the rate of the reaction. They are part of the protein macromolecule group. Without them, our bodies would not process things efficiently or fast enough for us to live.

Hope I helped. Have a nice day.
