Grass clippings from a city park were being collected and sent to a landfill. The city now wants to conserve space in the landfill. To do this, the city plans to
use a mulching lawnmower that grinds up grass clippings and then spreads the
clippings on the park's lawn.

Identify the process that happens over time to grass clippings that are ground

Part B

involved in this process.
