Solution
The correct option is C Nitrogen
The substances which are added to the soil as sources of nutrients for the healthy growth of plants are called as manure and fertilizers.
Manure is an organic substance produced by the decomposition of plant and animal wastes in the presence of microorganism and used as fertilizers because it contains nutrients such as nitrogen, that are trapped by bacteria in the soil.
