Answer:

Hey!

C. LIVE STOCK WASTE is your answer!

Step-by-step explanation:

Waste from cattle/pigs/goats/hens and other animals in the farm all contain organisms which live in the waste...this is how the waste is decomposed and formed into natural fertilisers

THE REST DO NOT CONTAIN ANY ORGANIC MATTER...

HOPE THIS HELPS!!

Answer:

Livestock waste

Step-by-step explanation:

Fertilizers supplement the soil with macronutrients needed in large amounts: nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium. However, organic and inorganic fertilizers do so via different materials. Organic fertilizers contain only plant- or animal-based materials that are either a byproduct or end product of naturally occurring processes, such as manures, leaves, and compost.

Inorganic fertilizer, also referred to as synthetic fertilizer, is manufactured artificially and contains minerals or synthetic chemicals. For example, synthetic nitrogen fertilizers are typically made from petroleum or natural gas. Phosphorus, potassium and other trace elements in inorganic fertilizers are often mined from the earth. Balanced inorganic fertilizers, high in all three macronutrients, commonly include products like ammonium nitrate, ammonium sulfate, potassium chloride (potash), triple superphosphate, and magnesium sulfate (Epsom salts).
