Question

Name the process that makes the detritus become part of the soil
in the nutrient cycle.
​

Answer 1

The correct question will be :

How nutrient cycle has made detritus an important part of the soil formation?

Nutrient cycle has made detritus an important part of the soil formation due to the following reasons :

- Nutrient Cycle is one of the most important procedure which is vital for the production of minerals in the soil.

- All kinds of minerals recycle under this process to produce ecological nutrients for the soil.

- Organic matter and Inorganic matter lead to the production of vital products due to the act of recycling the materials.

- This is very vital process to protect our biodiversity.

Answer 2

Detritus becomes part of soil during fragmentation

Step by step explanation:

There are 5 steps included in detritus: 1. fragmentation 2. Leaching 3.  Catabolism  4. Humification 5. Mineralisation

FRAGMENTATION: It is a process in which detritivores convert dead organic material into smaller fragment. Detritivores are organism that feed on organic material. It is the process that makes detritus a part of soil in nutrient cycle.  

CATABOLISM: It is proceeded by fragmentation. In this process bacteria and Fungus produce certain enzymes which converts them into soluble oranic and inorganic substance.

LEACHING: During this process Detritus and feces becomes nutrients. It occurs in deeper soil.

HUMIFICATION: In this process their is formation of humus

MINERALIZATION: In this process nutrients are further released from humus.
