Answer:
In aerobic decomposition, living organisms, which use oxygen, feed upon the organic matter. They use the nitrogen, phosphorus, some of the carbon, and other required nutrients. Much of the carbon serves as a source of energy for the organisms and is burned up and respired as carbon dioxide (C02).

Answer:
On consuming organic matter, the aerobic bacteria produce carbon dioxide
Explanation:
Aerobic bacteria are bacteria that grow in the presence of oxygen.
- Bacteria swiftly consume organic materials and convert them to carbon dioxide, water, and a range of smaller molecular weight organic compounds (Methane).
- Lactobacillus and Mycobacterium tuberculosis are examples of aerobic bacteria.
Anaerobic bacteria, on the other hand, are bacteria that do not live or grow in the presence of oxygen.
Clostridium is an example of anaerobic bacteria.
