\huge\mathfrak\red {Answer:}

<h2>Fixation</h2>

Nitrogen in its gaseous form (N2) can’t be used by most living things. It has to be converted or ‘fixed’ to a more usable form through a process called fixation. There are three ways nitrogen can be fixed to be useful for living things:

<h3>Biologically: </h3>

Nitrogen gas (N2) diffuses into the soil from the atmosphere, and species of bacteria convert this nitrogen to ammonium ions (NH4+), which can be used by plants. Legumes (such as clover and lupins) are often grown by farmers because they have nodules on their roots that contain nitrogen-fixing bacteria.

<h3>Through lightning: </h3>

Lightning converts atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia and nitrate (NO3) that enter soil with rainfall.

Water has special characteristics because of the nature of hydrogen bonds what are they?
Amanda [17]

Water has special characteristics because liquid water is denser than ice and ice floats on top of liquid water​.

Answer: Option A & D

<u>Explanation:</u>

A water molecule is formed by the covalent bonding between two atoms of Hydrogen atom with one atom of Oxygen. In water, the Hydrogen bonds are the one that keeps the water molecule intact.  

When the water molecule freezes the bonding becomes weak as they are separated and set apart which makes the liquid water denser than ice. Normally a substance floats if it is less dense. Ice floats because it is less dense than water.
