Living organisms can incorporate:
• nitrates
• ammonia

Both nitrates and ammonia can be taken up and used by plants in their metabolism. These compounds can then enter the food web as animals consume the plants. Nitrites are also used by some organisms but are more often a transitional form in the nitrogen cycle, and not as commonly used for metabolic processes as nitrates and ammonia. Nitrogen gas (N2), which makes up about 78% of the Earth's atmosphere, is not directly usable by most living organisms until it is converted into forms like nitrates or ammonia through processes like nitrogen fixation.
