There's a great chapter on bryophyte decomposition (including Sphagnum) in Dr. Janice Glime's online Bryophyte Ecology textbook. Sphagnum does decompose, but quite slowly, and one of the reasons is that Sphagnum acidifies its environment. This limits the activity of decomposers.
in other words acid!
The pH level of the environment can affect bacterial growth. Bacteria have an optimal pH range in which they can thrive and reproduce. If the pH is too high or too low, it can disrupt the bacterial cell's internal environment and inhibit growth. This is because pH affects the structure and function of proteins and enzymes that are essential for bacterial metabolism.
Bacterias and some fungi do not decompose living organisms because the immune system of living organisms do not allow bacterias to decompose them. The immune system of living organisms fight against these bacterias. In the case the immune system of the living organism dying, the bacterias can easily harm them.
If an enzyme is placed in an environment that is too acidic or too basic, its structure can be denatured, which means its active site will change shape and it will no longer be able to catalyze reactions effectively. This will decrease or even stop its enzymatic activity.
The ideal osmotic environment for an animal cell is isotonic, where the concentration of solutes inside the cell is the same as outside the cell. This prevents the cell from taking in too much water (bursting) or losing too much water (shriveling).
Some factors that vary in the environment of organisms include temperature, availability of food and water, presence of predators or competitors, and the quality of shelter or habitat. These factors can influence the survival and reproduction of organisms within a particular ecosystem.
I would really take up too 3 weeks because well its paper
It takes a potato approxiamately 1-2yrs too decompose from its original form.
When freon is heated, it undergoes a phase change from a liquid to a gas. This change in state allows it to absorb heat from the surrounding environment, making it an effective refrigerant. Heating freon too much can cause it to decompose into potentially harmful substances.
If you have too much of these foods, they areunhealthy for you.
yes it help in decompose process used in fertilizer too
The environment would degrade because the animals would eat too much food and begin to starve
That depends on too many variables to give a fixed answer. For example if it stays wet it decomposes fairly quickly, but if dried it does not decompose at all.
yes; kerosene is harmful because it pollutes the environment and people might be sick or die and also is harmful for animals too.
- Because they too have the responsibility of protecting the environment for thier children and their children's children. - Because they are part of this generation which has the responsibility of protecting the environment for the generations of tomorrow.
If sulfuric acid is heated too high, it can decompose into sulfur trioxide and water vapor. This can lead to an increase in pressure within the container, potentially causing it to explode. Additionally, there is a risk of the sulfuric acid releasing toxic sulfur dioxide gas into the environment.
Pickling vinegar acts as a preservative because it makes the environment too acidic to support microorganisms. So mould doesn't grow because it's too acidic.
Because too much oxygen is harmful to the environment.
