c. is from decomposition of abiotic material
d. is from decomposition of fossil fuels
e. is primariily from decomposition of plant material and nitrification

The likelihood that your yard slopes one way or the other ... statistically ... depends in large part on what region you live in. (Here I'll be speaking mainly of the US, but the principle applies broadly.) If you...
Hey guys, I want to find some interesting topics about geology to write my term paper.. I need something interesting and not too broad about geology.
Thank you
