A) \[NO_{2}^{-}\]
B) ammonia
C) \[NO_{3}^{-}\]
D) glutamate
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
The process of conversion of nitrogen (N2) to ammonia is termed as nitrogen fixation. \[\underset{\text{(Nitrogen)}}{\mathop{{{\text{N}}_{\text{2}}}\to }}\,\underset{\text{(Dimide)}}{\mathop{{{\text{N}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}}}\,\to \underset{\text{(Hydrazine)}}{\mathop{{{\text{N}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{4}}}\to }}\,\underset{\text{(Ammonia)}}{\mathop{\text{2N}{{\text{H}}_{3}}}}\,\] \[2N{{H}_{3}}+3{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}2NO_{2}^{-}+2{{H}^{+}}2{{H}_{2}}O\] \[2N{{O}_{2}}+{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}2NO_{3}^{-}\] In reductive animation ammonia reacts with \[\text{ }\!\!\alpha\!\!\text{ -}\]ketoglutaric acid and forms glutamic acid \[\text{ }\!\!\alpha\!\!\text{ -}\]ketoglutaric acid \[+NH_{4}^{+}+NADPH\] \[\xrightarrow[\text{Dehydrogenae}]{\text{Glutamate}}\text{Glutamat}\,\text{+}\,{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\text{O}\,\text{+}\,\text{NADP}\]
