The gases released by fertilizers and landfills do differ in terms of composition and quantity. Fertilizers typically release nitrogen oxides, ammonia, and methane into the atmosphere. In contrast, landfills primarily release methane, carbon dioxide, and trace amounts of volatile organic compounds.
While both fertilizers and landfills contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, landfills are a significant source of methane, a greenhouse gas that is more potent than carbon dioxide in trapping heat in the atmosphere. On the other hand, fertilizers contribute primarily to nitrogen oxide emissions, which is also a potent greenhouse gas but in lower quantities compared to methane.
Overall, both fertilizers and landfills play a role in contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change, but the specific gases released and their impact on the environment may vary between the two sources.

The first and second statements are incorrect. Fertilizers can release nitrous oxide, not methane, as a byproduct of microbial processes in the soil. Landfills, on the other hand, release methane primarily as a result of the decomposition of organic waste in anaerobic conditions.
The third statement is correct. Fertilizers can release carbon dioxide as a byproduct of decomposition processes, while landfills release methane, not carbon dioxide, as a result of the anaerobic decomposition of organic waste.
