(A) The nitrogen cycle is a biogeochemical process by which nitrogen is converted into various chemical forms as it circulates among the atmosphere,terrestrial,and marine ecosystems.$1$. Nitrogen fixation converts atmospheric nitrogen $(N_{2})$ into ammonia $(NH_{3})$.$2$. Nitrification is the process where ammonia is converted into nitrites $(NO_{2}^{-})$ and then into nitrates $(NO_{3}^{-})$ by nitrifying bacteria.$3$. Assimilation involves plants taking up these nitrates to form organic nitrogen compounds.$4$. Ammonification is the process where organic nitrogen from dead organisms is converted back into ammonia by decomposers.$5$. Denitrification is the process where nitrates are reduced back into atmospheric nitrogen $(N_{2})$ by denitrifying bacteria.Looking at the options,option $A$ correctly represents the sequence: Atmospheric Nitrogen $\rightarrow$ Ammonia (via fixation) $\rightarrow$ Nitrites $\rightarrow$ Nitrates $\rightarrow$ Atmospheric Nitrogen (via denitrification).

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$(a)$ Free living aerobic nitrogen fixer	$(1)$ Frankia
$(b)$ Denitrification	$(2)$ Anabaena
