1 answer
The correct comparison is:
Item 7: Chemicals from fertilizers can release nitrous oxide, while landfills release methane.
This is accurate as fertilizers, particularly nitrogen-based ones, can lead to the release of nitrous oxide (N2O) during soil processes, while organic matter decomposing in landfills primarily produces methane (CH4).
