Death

Vedclass · Answer

(C) The material cycle (biogeochemical cycle) refers to the movement of nutrients and elements through the biotic and abiotic components of an ecosystem. Death is a crucial process in this cycle because it allows for the decomposition of organic matter by decomposers (bacteria and fungi). This decomposition releases nutrients back into the soil,water,and atmosphere,thereby maintaining the balance of the material cycle and ensuring the continuity of life.
