All of the following are involved in nitrification except
Correct answer: C. Rhizohium
- A. Nitrobacter
- B. Nitrosomonas
- C. Rhizohium
- D. All of these
Explanation
Nitrification is the conversion of ammonia into nitrite and then nitrate, carried out mainly by Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter. Rhizobium fixes atmospheric nitrogen in legume root nodules rather than carrying out nitrification. The likely alternative is d, but 'all of these' is incorrect because Rhizobium is excluded.

About Classification of Biological Molecules
Biological molecules are classified as carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids, with water, minerals and vitamins also supporting cellular processes. The key distinctions involve their monomers, chemical bonds, structures and functions, including glucose and starch, fatty acids and triglycerides, amino acids and polypeptides, and nucleotides in DNA and RNA.
