Both of them make nutrients available to the rest of the biota that would otherwise remain locked up in the environment. Without these crucial links, everything would die, lacking the ability to uptake the precious nutrients in their locked-up states.

Soil and decomposers are similar in that they both play crucial roles in nutrient cycling within ecosystems, facilitating the breakdown of organic matter. However, they differ in composition: soil is a complex mixture of minerals, organic matter, water, and air, while decomposers, such as bacteria and fungi, are living organisms that break down dead material. Additionally, soil provides a habitat for various organisms, including decomposers, but it is not a living entity itself.

Some functions of eukaryotic organelles, like photosynthesis in chloroplasts and energy production in mitochondria, are performed by bacteria such as cyanobacteria and proteobacteria. Bacteria can also carry out protein synthesis similar to the endoplasmic reticulum in eukaryotic cells.
Bacteria do not have microtubules in an eukaryotic sense since they do not have tubulin. However, they do have tubulin homologue FtsZ protein that form structures and perform functions similar to microtubules in eukaryotes. Sometimes these structures are referred to as 'bacteria microtubules'.
What is true of cells that have similar functions?
The MIT Mission Environment explains the decomposers found in the tundra are similar to those found in more temperate regions - namely bacteria, fungi and insects. Organisms such as bacteria, fungi and insects found in the tundra have adapted to survive in the low temperatures and waterlogged landscape of the tundra.
Common decomposers in the Long Island Sound include bacteria, fungi, and certain types of invertebrates like worms and crabs. These organisms play a crucial role in breaking down dead organic matter and returning nutrients to the ecosystem.
A group of similar cells performing similar functions is called a tissue. Tissues work together to carry out specific functions in the body.
Worm, maggots and similar things that decompose organic solids in the ground.
no
the bacteria would be more genetically similar.
