When a plant dies, most of the nitrogen in the plant’s tissues is: A. consumed by animals in the soil. B. unable to go on as part of the nitrogen cycle. C. released into the soil by bacteria. D. able to go directly back into the atmosphere.

After a plant dies it's the job of a decomposer to carry along the nitrogen back to the surface so that it may continue to cycle along, until it eventually returns back to the decomposer through the death of another plant.

Explanation:

carbohydrates: (starches and sugars) composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

lipids: (fats, oils, and waxes) are made of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

nucleic acids: contain hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus. they are polymers of nucleotides. a nucleotide has three parts, a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate     (-po⬇️4) group, and a nitrogenous base.

proteins: made up of nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. they are polymers of amino acids.
