Studies of the Functionality of Annual Crop and Weed Diversify in Polyculture Cropping Systems Biodiversity is considered to be critical to ecosystem functioning (EF), which refers to rates of net primary productivity (NPP), respiration, decomposition, nutrient cycling and other important biogeochemical processes

Axenic Correct Answer-pure culture Biogeochemical Cycling Correct Answer-Microbes play a role through: harnessing light energy, degrading dead plant and animal matter (including recalcitrant substrates), promote plant growth, fix nitrogen gas, oxidize inorganics, metabolize toxic products Phototrophs Correct Answer-obtain energy from sunlight Heterotrophs Correct Answer-obtain energy from organic compounds Lithotrophs Correct Answer-obtain energy form inorganic compounds Endospore...
