putrefaction 和 decay的区别,具体用法?
请翻译此句，给出两个单词的中文表达：This process is mainly caused by bacteria and includes putrefaction,a reduction process involving the formation of volatile hydrogen compounds,and decay,an oxidative mechanism.

Answer 1

这一过程主要是由细菌引起的,包括生物体的腐烂和分解.腐烂是一个关于生成氢化合性气体的还原过程,而分解是一个氧化过程.
putrefaction和decay,大部分词典都翻译成腐烂,腐化,但是查生物专业词典的话,可以看到putrefaction：decay usually accompanied by an offensive odor,就是会发出不好闻体气的腐烂过程.
decay可以翻译作分解.
而且从这句话的翻译可以看,putrefaction是一个还原过程,decay是一个氧化过程
