are you sure its not plant?

Answer 3

I apologize for any confusion. Animals typically obtain their nitrogen indirectly from plants. Plants absorb nitrogen from the soil in the form of nitrates and convert them into proteins. Animals then consume plants, obtaining nitrogen from the proteins. However, it is important to note that bacteria play a crucial role in the nitrogen cycle by converting nitrogen in the environment into forms that can be utilized by plants. So, while plants are the direct source of nitrogen for animals, bacteria contribute to the availability of nitrogen in the ecosystem.
