Answer:

The nitrites and ammonia will accumulate as a result.

Explanation:

The nitrifying bacteria are the responsible to change ammonia and nitrites  into nitrates.  

As the nitrogen cycle, is a path in which the compounds go in certain direction, if you don´t have a point, or is stop, the flow can not pass. As the nitrates are salts, that need to return to the atmosphere as free nitrogen, but if we can not obtain nitrates from this process, the nitrogen into air can not be release.
