Process in which nutrients in dead organisms are returned to the soil_____.

hintHint:

The process of decomposition involves the release of nutrients that support dead organisms back into the soil. 

The correct answer is: Decomposition


    • The movement and interchange of inorganic and organic materials back into the formation of matter is known as a nutrient cycle (or ecological recycling).
    • This process converts biological stuff that is dead and decomposes into basic inorganic forms. Decomposers are defined as organisms that aid in the process of decomposition.
