a. inorganic nutrients from humus
b. both organic and inorganic nutrients from detritus
c. organic nutrients from humus
d. inorganic nutrients from detritus and formation of humus
Correct option – ( a )
Explanation –mineralization is release of inorganic substances from organic substances . T he process is slow because trapping of the nutrients in humus and their immobilization in decomposers . Hence the process ofmineralisation by microorganisms helps in the release of inorganic nutrients from humus
Hence correct answer is – inorganic nutrients from humus
