the nitrogen cycle provides nitrogen to the ecosystem from the atmosphere, ground and oceans. nitrogen is an important component of complex molecules such as amino acids and nucleotides, which lead to the creation of proteins and dna, the building blocks of all life. plants absorb nitrogen in the form of ammonium, nitrate ion and, on rare occasions, as amino acids. animals receive nitrogen necessary for biological processes from feeding on living or dead organic matter.

producers within ecosystems are essential as they are at the base of the food chain. plants are examples of producers. they use the process of photosynthesis to capture light energy and use it to convert simple inorganic substances (carbon dioxide and water) into organic substances (glucose).
