      What could be the reason for the faster rate of decomposition in the tropics?

    Answer:

                      Tropics are characterized by high temperature and moisture and soil is rich in humus and minerals. As the decomposition rate is regulated by climatic factors, thus optimum temperature and humidity enhance the activity of decomposers while the dead remain is also available in rich amount, which supports the faster rate of decomposition in the tropics.
