Decomposition is the process by which organic substances are broken down into a more simple organic matter. The process is a part of the nutrient cycle and is essential for recycling the finite matter that occupies physical space in the biosphere. Bodies of living organisms begin to decompose shortly after death. Animals, such as worms, also help decompose the organic materials. Organisms that do this are known as decomposers.

Answer:
Failure of chromosome to separate
Explanation:
The main essence of meiotic division is to form daughter cells with a reduced number of chromosomes that will maintain the correct chromosomal number in an organism. This is achieved when chromosomes separate during gamete formation (meiosis) to produce haploid (n) gametes.
However, a case may arise whereby chromosomes fail to separate during the anaphase stage of meiosis. This case is referred to as MEIOTIC NON-DISJUNCTION. As meiosis occurs in two stages i.e. meiosis I and II, so does meiotic nondisjunction. It can occur in meiosis I, where homologous chromosomes fail to separate or meiosis II, where sister chromatids fail to separate.
If it occurs in meiosis I, Two gametes will have a n-1 chromosome number i.e. one chromosome is missing while Two other gametes will have n+1 chromosome number i.e. one extra chromosome is added.
If it occurs in meiosis II, two normal haploid gametes (n) will be produced while the other two will have a n+1 and n-1 chromosome number respectively.
When these abnormal gametes (n+1, n-1) fuses with a normal gamete (n), the resulting organisms possess a chromosomal anomaly called ANEUPLOIDY i.e. a disorder in chromosomal number. The organisms will have 47 and 45 chromosomes depending on whether n+1 or n-1 gametes is involved respectively.
Answer:
It's a duplication........
I don't personally know this but I looked it up and these were some answers I got.
1. There are no photoreceptors present, therefore vision is lost when light hits this spot (the blind spot)
2. Vision is lost when light hits the blind spot because the blind spot lacks photoreceptors, so light focused on it cannot be seen.
3. The back of your eye contains all of the detectors which sense when light hits them, this is how you see. All of these signals are sent to the brain by the optic nerve, which connects to the back of the eye to receive the signals. Where it connects, however, there are no detectors so there is a small patch which each eye is unable to see and the brain has to fill in based on data from the other eye.

Answer:
Nitrogen is converted from atmospheric nitrogen into forms, such as NO2-, in a process called fixation. The majority of nitrogen is fixed by bacteria, a lot of which are symbiotic with plants.
Answer: Fixation
