Anoxic decomposition is a biological process in which a certain group of microorganisms use chemically combined oxygen, such as that found in nitrite and nitrate. The organic matter they consume supports their life functions and nitrogen gas, carbon dioxide, stable solids and more organisms are produced in the process.

What is Stagnation deposits?
decreased microbial decomposition, often anoxic.
Can plants live in anoxic soil?
Yes plants can live in anoxic soil. an example of a plant that can live in anoxic soil is the mangrove. A mangrove can live in anoxic soil because of little arial roots called pnuematophores that are not submerged by water during the day, this allows them to draw oxygen into the underground root system.

The difference between oxic and anoxic soil?
Soil that contains oxygen is known as oxic soil. On other hand soil which lacks the oxygen is known as anoxic soil
What are the main causes for anoxic brain injury?
The main causes for anoxic brain injury are lack of oxygen to the brain. This can be caused due to drowning, suffocation, shock or autoerotic asphyxiation.
What is without oxygen?
The terms for without oxygen are anaerobic or anoxic.
What is the difference between anoxic and anaerobic condition?
Anaerobic = total absence of free oxygen (O2) or bound oxygen (NO2, NO3) Anoxic = absence of free oxygen, but presence of bound oxygen.
