Solution

The pair of processes that involves the use of bacteria is Nitrogen fixation and denitrification.

Here's why:

  1. Evaporation and transpiration: These are physical processes that occur in nature. Evaporation is the process by which water changes from a liquid to a gas or vapor. Transpiration is the process where plants absorb water through the roots and then give off water vapor through pores in their leaves. Neither of these processes involve bacteria.

  2. Photosynthesis and cellular respiration: These are biological processes that occur in plants and animals respectively. Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll pigments. Cellular respiration is the set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and then release waste products. While bacteria can perform similar processes, these specific terms are typically associated with plants and animals, not bacteria.

  3. Nitrogen fixation and denitrification: These are biological processes that are carried out by bacteria. Nitrogen fixation is the process by which nitrogen in the atmosphere is converted into ammonia by bacteria. Denitrification is the process by which bacteria convert nitrates into nitrogen gas, returning it to the atmosphere.

Therefore, the correct answer is Nitrogen fixation and denitrification.
