Well, if you were wondering, decomposers are close to the begginning of the food chain. Such usually are bacteria. They are helpful. They help decompose dead animals to keep our world clean. Consumers are things, such as cows, pigs, and any other kind of animal or plant that has to eat something else to survive. Only few plants eat other things. A Venus Flytrap catches flies in it's 'mouth'. And a Tropical Pitcher plant. They eat by animals or insects falling into their 'pitcher', that's full of acid.
So, decomposers are any kind of thing that breaks down dead animals or plants. And, consumers are any kind of animal or plant that eats another animal or plant. Hope this helped!
