Read the following statements carefully : ( i ) primary succession is a very slow process taking thousands of years for the climax to be reached. (ii) The energy at a higher trophic level is always more than at a lower level (iii) Bacterial and fungal enzymes degrade detritus into simple inorganic substances. This process is called fragmentation . (iv ) All succession, whether taking place in water or on land, proceeds to a similar climax community : the mesic condition .

Fragmentation, leaching and catabolism are some of the important steps of decomposition. Study the following statements I , ii and iii regarding these and select the correct option. (i) Detritivores (e.g., earthworm) breakdown detritus into smaller particles. (ii) Water soluble inorganic nutrients go down into soil horizon and get precipitated as unavailable salts. (iii) Decomposers (e.g., bacteria and fungi) secrete digestive enzymes and degrade detritus into simpler inorganic substances.
