All the following conditions must be present for a fire to start except Nitrogen.

Step-by-step explanation:

Four components are required to form a fire: fuel, oxygen, heat, and a chemical change. Fuel is any combustible, solid, liquid or gas. Most solids or liquids become a vapor or gas before they burn. On the other hand, nitrogen prevents the fire from getting enough oxygen to continue burning.

The answer is A. Nitrogen to support fire.

You can refer to the FIRE TRIANGLE or COMBUSTION TRIANGLE, for this. The triangle illustrates the 3 elements needed to ignite a fire. The three elements are oxygen, heat, and fuel. If all three of these elements are put together in the right mixture and amount, a fire will occur.
