The amino acids and nucleic acids are required by the plants for proper growth and metabolism. Several enzyme composition is also based upon the nitrogen which performs functions in the cellular and molecular metabolisms.

Therefore, according to the above information Nitrogen is needed to build proteins and enzymes is the correct option.
