It is Respiration
no
Organic matter is organic compounds or mixtures of organic compounds.
Yes.There is organic matter and inorganic matter. Everything is chemical.
Yes, dirt is organic. Dirt may be defined as a mixture of clay, humus, sand, and stone. Humus serves as the key ingredient as the end-product of the natural breakdown of dead, decayed, and decaying animal and plant matter.
Ammoniacal nitrogen refers to the form of nitrogen present in water or soil as ammonium ions (NH4+). It is derived from the breakdown of organic matter and the decomposition of urea and other nitrogen-containing compounds. Ammoniacal nitrogen is an important parameter measured in water and soil testing, as it can indicate the presence of organic pollution or the potential for nitrogen fertilizers to leach into groundwater.
Living organisms break down organic matter. The matter can be animal or plant in origin even though it always will be carbon-based. The breakdown may be through fermentation in anaerobic decomposition or oxidation through aerobic decomposition, or respectively without or with the presence of oxygen.
There are many natural sources of nitrogen, two of which are mineralization of organic matter and animal waste.
Volcanic ash is devoid of organic matter hence plant growth is not promoted in it. When plant debries get mixed with it and micro-organisms in the presence of moisture breakdown the organic matter into minerals, plant growth may be promoted in that case.
From the breakdown and absorption of organic matter. Detritus, actually.
The breakdown of organisms into large pieces of organic matter (detritus)
The biological and physical chemical application of oxidation and reduction include contaminant reduction and mineralization of organic matter.
no
Decomp, or decomposition, nice ways of referring to rotting.

The breakdown of organic material by decomposers.
decomposers
Spirogyra are decomposers which breakdown dead organic matter. This is green algae which used conjugation as the method of reproduction.
