Question

level 4 q2 bacteria are responsible for carrying out the process of nitrification. how are bacteria classified? a. detritivores b. decomposers c. scavengers d. producers

Explanation:

Decomposers break down dead organic matter. Bacteria play a key - role in decomposition, including in the process of nitrification where they convert ammonia to nitrites and then to nitrates. Detritivores physically break down detritus, scavengers feed on dead animals, and producers make their own food through photosynthesis. Bacteria involved in nitrification are decomposers.

Answer:

B. Decomposers
