No, bacteria or insects that eat plants use oxygen and the dead plants, which contain carbon, release carbon not oxygen.
decomposers are what breaks down dead plants and animals and cause them to decay quickly
When plants and animals (any living matter) decay, their remains are in the soil, in the material called humus.
don't die and you won't decay. if that falls you can drain them of oxygen and keep them in a cool dry place. your decision
Warm, humid condition with a good supply of water and nutrients!
Eutrophication promotes excessive plant growth and decay and causes a severe reduction in water quality. Phosphorus is a necessary nutrient for plants to live, and is the limiting factor for plant growth in many freshwater ecosystems.
oxygen, moisture, absence of sunlight, heat
Decay is helpful because It helps to rot down plants and mould is used to create penicillin to help cure viruses.
Plants decay when they are subject to moisture, warmth, oxygen, and the presence of decomposers like bacteria, fungi, and insects. These conditions facilitate the breakdown of organic matter in the plant tissues through the process of decomposition.

To quote Wikipedia's article on Peat, it is partially decayed vegetation matter. Peat forms in wetlands where decay is inhibited by a low oxygen or acidic environment. When collected, this forms an excellent source of nutrients for plants and retention of water.
The decay bacteria fit in with the carbon dioxide oxygen cycle by releasing CO2 into the water. Aquatic plants then take this CO2 and use it to produce energy while releasing O2 back into the water.
The plants will die and decay, causing a decrease in dissolved oxygen; plants will block sunlight to deeper water.
No. Photosynthesis involves plants taking carbon dioxide and, using sunlight for energy, forming sugar and oxygen. Radioactive decay involves a single element (no sunlight, no plants) releasing particles and changing (decaying) into a different element.
when plants die, they go through decomposition. types of decomposers are fungi and bacteria. they help to break dead plants into simpler substances like carbon dioxide, water and mineral salts. that is why plants decay.
Oxygen-17 would become fluorine-17 after undergoing alpha decay, and then it would decay into oxygen-17 again after undergoing beta decay. Alpha decay involves emitting an alpha particle comprising two protons and two neutrons, while beta decay involves either emitting an electron (beta minus decay) or a positron (beta plus decay) to change the nucleus.

No, dead plants do not give off oxygen because they are no longer undergoing photosynthesis, the process by which plants generate oxygen. Instead, dead plants undergo decomposition, releasing carbon dioxide back into the environment.
