Answer:
Decomposition rates would be lowered because fungi would be destroyed.
Explanation:
The fungi are considered one of the decomposers of nature along with ascomycetes and the bacteria. The fungi are considered decomposers as the heterotrophic organism which absorbs the nutrients from the organism.
In the given question, when the fungicide was sprayed on the area with the fungus, then the decomposition rate of that area will decrease as the fungicide kills the fungi. As a result of this killing, the rate of decomposition will decrease in that area.
Thus, the selected option is correct.
Marine biologists study changes in the ocean. so they will look at the chemical composition of deep waters and see how consecrated the oxygen is. They will also study the movements of the plates because when planted move it usually makes new food for deep life
they will also check animal concentrations in certain areas.
Another thing they do is track animal movements. this could be by putting a tracker on a whale or a shark or anything and watching its depths it goes or watching the distance it goes in a day.
<u>Answer:</u>
The most appropriate answer option is: D) Saprophytes return organic material to the soil for use by living organisms.
<u>Explanation:</u>
A saprophyte, also known as a saprobe or saprotroph, is an organism (fungi) which feeds and grows on decomposing organisms. We also know that it secrete enzymes that digest components of cell walls, such as cellulose and lignin.
Saprophyte is an important part of the biogeochemical cycle as it decomposes the bodies of the dead organisms, recycles them and releases nutrients into the soil to be used by the living organisms.
I think the answer is either b or c
