Which of the statements about the nitrogen cycle is not true? Animals get nitrogen by eating plants or other animals Animals get nitrogen by eating plants or other animals Decomposers break down waste to yield ammonium Decomposers break down waste to yield ammonium Nitrogen moves back and forth between the atmosphere and living things Nitrogen moves back and forth between the atmosphere and living things All plants generate nitrogen in their roots

decomposers break down waste to yield ammonia.

Explanation:

The nitrogen cycle is the process by which nitrogen circulates among the atmosphere, terrestrial, and marine ecosystems and is converted into multiple chemical forms through both biological and physical processes.

In the nitrogen cycle, decomposers do not break down waste to yield ammonia.

So, the option ''decomposers break down waste to yield ammonia'' is correct.

would be false hope this out
