Pyrolysis
FALSE. Fossil fuels come from organic matter that has undergone anaerobic decomposition. We suspect that much of our fossil fuel comes from buried plankton and dinosaurs.
Any thing that is organic and dies
Farmyard manure creates heat energy from decomposition of leaves. There is also physical change because the leaves' structure is broken down. The main factors for producing good manure are: water, which is already part of the manure; heat, which is generated by the decomposing leaves; and air, which is needed to aid the decomposition, because decomposition is a very slow form of "burning". Quite a high temperature can be generated in a manure heap or a compost heap.
Inaccuracy in the particle size and therefore in soil characterization, classification and texture is the reason for why organic matter has to be removed in soil hydrometer tests. Samples may contain carbonates, organic matter, oxides and soluble salts. All four of the above-mentioned soil constituents need to be removed since they bind soil particles into bigger sizes.
Pyrolysis
decomposition
Decomposition (or rotting) is the process by which organic substances are broken down into simpler forms of matter.
Organic matter is converted into animal and microbial tissue during decomposition. This matter can be then used to fertilize the soil.
Good air flow is necessary for the decomposition of organic matter because decaying matter builds up gases. If the gases are not allowed to escape the area, there could be an explosion.

bacteria or fungi
Organic matter is formed through the decomposition of living organisms, such as plants, animals, and microbes. When these organisms die, their remains break down and undergo a process called decomposition, where organic compounds are broken down into simpler molecules by fungi, bacteria, and other decomposers. This process eventually results in the formation of organic matter in the soil.
There are no microbes present to break down organic matter
The process in which oxygen is removed from the water by the decomposition of large amounts of organic matter

Carbon is what humus is a source of.Specifically, the term designates organic matter in soil. The organic matter is created by the decomposition of animal and plant matter. Decomposition results in increased availability of carbon. Humus also will attract ammonium, copper, magnesium, potassium and zinc.
