Potential sources of food can also influence Radiolaria behavior. Although they may possess symbiotic relationships and can act as particle feeders (meaning they just hang out and wait for food), radiolarians have a darker side to them -- they can also act as predators. When feeding as predators, Radiolaria may capturediatoms, tintinnids, and other calcareous organisms by ingesting them into their central cavity. They trap their prey on the peripheral network of rhizopodia. The symbiotic relationship that radiolarians share with dinoflagellates enable them to use a jelly-like layer to trap their prey.
Because they break dead organisms down into basic chemicals which can then be used by other organisms to grow and build their bodies, which can then be eaten by other organisms, thus continuing the food chain.
In any ecosystem there are 3 types of organismsProducers > organisms that can make their own food using energy from the sun. Most producers are green plants and supply a food source for other organisms in the ecosystem.Producers > organisms that cannot make their own food and rely on other organisms for food source. All herbivores and carnivores are consumers.Decomposer > organisms that break down dead bodies and wastes which provide nutrients for producers to re-use. De composers include bacteria and fungi. These organisms allow recycling of matter within the ecosystem.Food chain-a food chain is a sequence of organisms feeding
Yes, that is the effect of what decomposers do. However they are only doing what every other organism does: eating to meet their nutritional needs! The eat the food they evolved to eat, which just happens to be dead organisms and the excrement of living organisms. Their dead bodies and excrement is then recycled to the food web and something else depends on that for its nutrition. You do the same thing, but humans evolved to eat a mixture of plants and animals that we have killed. Our dead bodies and excrement become food to decomposers. Occasionally our bodies are eaten by predators in our environment. Thus we are recycled to the food web and something else depends on that for its nutrition.
We don't make our own food. We to have to eat other organisms to make energy for our bodies.
Decomposers, such as fungi and some bacteria, use waste products (feces) from other organisms and other the dead bodies of other organisms as food.
They become food for other organisms, they decompose and ultimately the become part of the soil
Our bodies are living organisms that need fuel to operate. Food we digest gives us the energy to keep our body temperature controlled and to use our muscles.
Organisms typically break down food into simpler substances that can be absorbed b their bodies/cells, and then they either store those substances or use them to extract chemical energy or build other biological compounds to aid life processes.
No. All organisms feed on inorganic matter such as salt. But decomposes break down organic matter.
Organisms are placed into domains and kingdoms based on their cell type ,their ability to make food ,and the number of cells in their bodies
Algae live in their bodies and make most of their food, but coral do catch tiny organisms to eat also.
