Certain bacteria living in the soil poor in oxygen, convert nitrates into nitrites and then to free nitrogen and such bacteria are termed asNitrogen fixing bacteriaDenitrifying bacteriaAmmonifying bacteriaSaprophytic bacteria
The correct answer is denitrifying bacteria.
In the process of denitrafication (NO3 – → N2), nitrates present in the soil are reduced to release nitrogen back into the atmosphere through denitrifying bacteria like Psuedomonas.
