A decomposer such as plankton, bacteria, or fugi, are not herbivores-plant eaters, carnivores-meat eaters, or omnivores-plant and meat eaters. So how do they get food and energy you ask. Well they break down dead animals into nutrients. The nutrients goes into the soil, and helps a new plant grow. You might have seen a vulture eating something on the side of the road or something, but that is NOT a decomposer. That is a scavenger. They get enerygy by eating dead animals. You might even say they are lasy because they eat animals that are already dead. They don't really do much work. Sorry if I over-informed you.

It is not a decomposer; an example of a decomposer is different types of fungi. Hope this helped!
