Dried grass clippings mixed into garden soil
gradually decompose, providing nutrients for
beneficial soil bacteria. This results in
better-than-average plant growth. Yet mixing fresh
grass clippings into garden soil usually causes
poorer-than-average plant growth.
Which one of the following, if true,most helps to
explain the difference in plant growth described above?
(A) The number of beneficial soil bacteria
increases whenever any kind of plant material
is mixed into garden soil.
(B) Nutrients released by dried grass clippings are
immediately available to beneficial soil
bacteria.
(C) Some dried grass clippings retain nutrients
originally derived from commercial lawn
fertilizers, and thus provide additional
enrichment to the soil.
(D) Fresh grass clippings mixed into soil
decompose rapidly, generating high levels of
heat that kill beneficial soil bacteria.
(E) When a mix of fresh and dried grass clippings
is mixed into garden soil, plant growth often
decreases.
