Which one of the following processes during decomposition is correctly described?
1. Detritivores (e.g., earthworm) break down detritus into smaller particles through the process of fragmentation.
2. Humification leads to accumulation of a dark coloured amorphous substance called humus that is highly resistant to microbial action and undergoes decomposition at an extremely slow rate.
3. Catabolism is the degradation of detritus into simpler inorganic substances in aerobic conditions.
4. By the process of leaching, water-soluble inorganic nutrients get precipitated as unavailable salts.
