{In an ecosystem, there is an interaction between the living and the non-lving environment. One
part of this interaction is the recyciing of materials such as carbon.

Farmers in some countries burn straw after the harvest.
What effect does this have on the amount of carbon dioxide in the environment?
‘Scientists suggest that it would be better for the environment if the straw was: dug or
ploughed back into: the soi.
In the soil, the straw could decay and decompose.
Name one of the main groups of organisms that is responsible for decay and
decomposition.
‘State two of the main benefits to plants of decompostion.
