Answer 1

Breakdown of detritus into smaller particles is called Fragmentation.

The process of decomposition involves the breakdown of the complex compounds into the simpler nutrients which enrich the soil with the minerals. There are many steps involved in decomposition like fragmentation, catabolism, leaching, leaching, humification and minrealisation. The process of fragmentation includes the breaking down of the detritus matter into smaller particles.
