Identify the correct statements: (A) Detrivores perform fragmentation. (B) The humus is further degraded by some microbes during mineralization. (C) Water soluble inorganic nutrients go down into the soil and get precipitated by a process called leaching. (D) The detritus food chain begins with living organisms. (E) Earthworms break down detritus into smaller particles by a process called catabolism. Choose the correct answer from the options given below
A, B, C only
B, C, D only
C, D, E only
D, E, A only
To solve this problem, we need to analyze each statement and determine which are correct:(A) Detrivores perform fragmentation. - Detrivores, such as earthworms, break down detritus into smaller particles, a process known as fragmentation. - Therefore, statement (A) is correct.(B) The humus is further degraded by some microbes during mineralization. - Humus is a stable organic matter that is further decomposed by microbes, releasing inorganic nutrients in a process called mineralization.
