There would be no release of organic nitrogen molecules back to their inorganic state. Dead material would accumulate to choke out livable habitat. 
<span>Plants fix atmospheric carbon in photosynthesis and some species of bacteria fix atmospheric nitrogen so life would continue taking these into the organic cycle but without decomposing fungi & bacteria the cycle would not complete. However the final step of reduction to N2 is only completed by bacteria. In fact bacteria are critical to every step of the nitrogen cycle. </span>


<span>Fungi also decompose dead plants and animals so are detrital feeders putting nitrogen into the nitrogen cycle but not as N2. Fungi cannot reduce N2O to N2. So fungi make N2O as their denitrification product. True denitrification, like nitrogen fixing, does not occur in eukaryotes only bacteria. </span>

Answer:

First-hand ethnographic fieldwork

Explanation:

Ethnography is the detailed account of a society and its culture by observing the social interactions that people have. This gives us an accurate description of a society and its culture as it not influenced by outside factors.

Here, Maria is studying the the lives of women in coffee farming communities in Brazil. She is observing them directly and making sure her presence does not influence their interactions. She is also doing this herself which means her research will not be affected by someone else's perspective.

Hence, she is using the strategy of first-hand ethnographic fieldwork.

QveST [7]
Eurasia is the combination of some parts of Europe and asian continent.

Religious view on wealth combination in these two regions were massively different.
Europe that dominated by Christians actually see wealth accumulation as acceptable as long is you don't let your life being controlled by it (eventhough the facts is many religious leaders actually lavished with a lot of wealth compared to commoners)
In asian continent that dominated by Buddhism,  Confucianism, or Hinduism,  wealth accumulation is seen in a more negative connotation compared to the European view.
