Answer 1

Hint: Fertilizer can be defined as a chemical or natural product that helps to add and increase the fertility of the soil or a land. Manure can be defined as a chemical or organic drug or medicine that also helps to add fertility to the soil.

Complete step by step answer:
-Organic manure encompasses a high amount of organic products that help to increase the capability of the soil that can hold water.
-Manures are prepared by the decomposition of organic materials by the help of the microbes. They are very rich in plant nutrients.
-Manure also helps to advance the quality and texture of the soil because they can form humus, which is hygroscopic.
-By the usage of manure, the gaseous exchange in the soil takes place very easily in this soil that allows the seed germination and plant growth accurately.
-Manure helps to recycle the nitrogen from the soil to the atmosphere and vice versa and it also introduces essential bacteria in the soil to increase the productivity of the soil.

Thus, the correct answer is option C. It improves the texture of the soil.
