Best Answer

Decomposers complete the cycle of matter by breaking down organic matter into inorganic nutrients that can be reused by producers. Without decomposers, the entire world would be knee-deep in plant litter, dead animal bodies, animal wastes, and garbage, and most life as we know it would no longer exist.
