What would the result be when a soil is supplemented with S0?
A) syntrophic utilization of sulfite
B) organic carbon production due to anaerobes
C) soil acidification due to chemolithotrophs
D) dimethyl sulfide production due to mixotrophs

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Supplementing soil with S0 would provide a source of sulfur for chemolithotrophs, which use inorganic compounds as their energy source and can lower soil pH as a byproduct of their metabolism. Therefore, Option C is the most appropriate choice. Options A, B, and D are not directly related to the addition of S0 to the soil.
