Answer is: humus.

Humus is the dark organic matter that forms in soil when dead plant and animal matter decays.

Microorganisms decompose the soil organic matter into inorganic minerals that the roots can absorb.

Humus can hold a lot of moisture (approximately 80–90% of its weight) and its dark color helps to warm cold soils.

The answer is; Humus  

Humus is found in the topmost layer of the soil where there is decomposing organic matter. This layer of soil has a characteristic color of dark brown to black. This layer of soil also teems with microbial activity and organisms such as earthworms, fungi, and arthropods which  are  significant in the decomposition of the dead organic matter.

Describe the reactions during the electrolysis of waterA) Oxygen is reduced and hydrogen is oxidized.B) Oxygen and hydrogen are
Natalka [10]

Answer:

D) Oxygen is oxidized and hydrogen is reduced.

Explanation:

In the electrolysis of water, an electric current passes through an electrolytic solution (e.g. aqueous NaCl), leading to the following redox reaction.

H₂O(l) → H₂(g) + 1/2 O₂(g)

The corresponding half-reactions are:

Reduction:  2 H₂O(l) + 2 e⁻ → H₂(g) + 2 OH⁻

Oxidation:  2 H₂O(l) → O₂(g) + 4 H⁺(aq) + 4 e⁻

As we can see, H in water is reduced (its oxidation number decreases from 1 to 0), while O in water is oxidized (its oxidation number increases from -2 to 0).

How do I do scientific notation
lina2011 [118]
1. First, move the decimal place until you have a number between 1 and 10. If you keep moving the decimal point to the right in 0.0000073 you will get 7.3.
2. Next, count how many places you moved the decimal point.
