Chemical change, micro-organic activity, and organic breakdown are what happens in compost bins and piles. Carbon- and nitrogen-rich recyclable materials decompose to their basic forms -- as dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich humus -- thanks to the natural interactions between air, heat, light, micro-organisms (actinomycetic/mesophilic/thermophilic bacteria, protozoa, rotifers, saprophytic fungi), and moisture.

What transformation of energy happens in rolling toy?
potencial energy
When freezing happens is energy added?
No, energy is removed.
As speed increases what happens to potential energy?
Potential energy is unrelated to speed.
What happens to the energy produced by decomposition in a compost bin?
A flow from herbivores to carnivores and a release as heat are what happens to energy produced by decomposition in a compost bin. A compost bin contains carbon- and nitrogen-rich recyclables which initially are processed by beneficial bacteria and fungi. The energy of that breakdown goes out as heat and through the bodies of such carnivorous decomposers as earthworms and ground-dwelling macro-invertebrates.
What happens to organic matter in compost bin?
Organic matter in a compost bin decomposes as a result of bacteria action.
When a compost bin releases energy it is in what form?
heat
Where does the heat from the compost bin come from?
Oxidized carbon generates heat in the compost bin.Specifically, a compost bin has to have moisture and materials which are carbon- and nitrogen-rich. There must be about a 27:1 ratio between carbon and nitrogen. The oxygen in water and nitrogen work to oxidize the bin's energy source, carbon.
How does a compost bin work?
the compost turns into monkeys
A compost bin will turn organic waste into?
A compost bin will turn organic waste into natural fertilizer.
What type of energy is contained inside the organic matter within a compost bin and what type of energy is released when that matter is decomposed?
potential to chemical
What it is a compost bin?
A bin that is used when composting manure and vegetation.
What is the orange mold growing in your kitchen compost bin?
If you have orange mold growing in your kitchen compost bin, you need to take your compost out. Mold is hot healthy to have in your house.

No dead animal matter is suitable for a compost bin.

What is the best way to describe the flow of energy through organisms in a compost bin?
