Vedclass · Answer

(C) The correct answer is $(c)$.Denitrifying bacteria,such as $Pseudomonas$ $aeruginosa$ and $Thiobacillus$ $denitrificans$,are responsible for the process of denitrification.In this process,these bacteria reduce nitrates $(NO_3^-)$ present in the soil into gaseous nitrogen $(N_2)$,which then escapes into the atmosphere,completing the nitrogen cycle.
