The cells of the body are perfectly capable of making proteins with a life span of many months, still the cells make proteins which are short-lived. On one hand, they make proteins like hemoglobin having a life span of approximately 120 days, and on the other hand, it makes proteins with life span of few days, such as a tumor suppressor protein. The short lived proteins have their own advantage, as they allow the cells to control their function, and amount precisely.

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.
