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.

(D) Fresh grass clippings mixed into soil decompose rapidly, generating high levels of heat that kill beneficial soil bacteria.

Explanation:

A and E - are irrelevant as they talk about benefits of plant material mixing and the Fresh grass+ dried grass mix. Both are not. B and C strengthen the reason to keep using dried grass but dont explain the reason for lack of growth with fresh grass. So if we focus on the question stem and look for a direct answer, we will reach D.

Hope this approach is correct. :)))

explanation:

b the manazanar relocation center was located in california. it was used to keep japanise from spying on america.

the reasons for the harsh treatment, is because japan used tourist to take pictures and snapshots of pearl harbor.

many americans were afraid that the japanise would betray them for their mother country. through and means necessary. this means that, the leadership in japan is a lot different than it is here. culture and family ties has much to do with their outlook and worldview.
