- humification and
- mineralization.
- Fragmentation is the process of breaking of detritus into small pieces by detrivores.
- Leaching is the process of releasing nutrients in the water and seeping into the soil.
- Catabolism is the process of breaking down of complex molecules into the simpler molecules.
