Herbivores are neither decomposers nor producers. Herbivores are organisms that consume plants for energy but do not play a role in breaking down dead organic matter (decomposers) or synthesizing food from sunlight (producers).

Biology cycling of matter and energy question Which is true Fungi are only decomposers Animals are only consumers Bacteria are only decomposers Plants are only primary producers?

Fungi can be decomposers, but some can also be mutualists or pathogens. Animals can be consumers, but some also play roles as decomposers or producers. Bacteria can be decomposers, but some also carry out processes like nitrogen fixation. Plants are considered primary producers, creating energy through photosynthesis.


Is a bacteria a producer?

No, bacteria are not considered producers. Producers are organisms that can make their own food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis. Bacteria are typically classified as decomposers or consumers that obtain their energy by breaking down organic material or consuming other organisms.


What is the role of producers consumers and decomposers in an ecosystem?

Producers capture energy and stores it in food. Consumers get their energy by eating other organisms. Decomposers decomposes the consumers, producers and waste materials to products that are again useful for producers. Thus, consumers do not actually have a role, while producers and decomposers do.
