Copper, lead, zinc, gold, silver, and nickel these metals can be decomposed with the help of microorganisms because they can lower the production costs.
Explanation:
- Bacteria play an important role in decomposition of organic materials, especially in the early stages of decomposition when moisture levels are high.
- In the later stages of decomposition, fungi tend to dominate.
- Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas fluorescens are examples of decomposer bacteria.
- Microorganisms live in soil and decompose organic matter and detritus in various ways.
- Microorganisms release nutrients from organic matter during decomposition some dissolve minerals to release nutrients while other microorganisms bring subsurface soil and nutrients to the surface for plants to use.
