Most of it would be because feces is the result material that is organic.
Dog feces are organic. They still have material in them that other animals would be willing to digest like bacteria or bugs.
It depends on the temperature of the feces and the freshness. Fresh warm feces is rich in methane (CH4) which is highly flammable would have a flash point of about -186 Celsius. The methane releases as the feces cools and dries which is where the composition of the feces comes in. Dry ambient temperature feces will have variable flash point depending on what the depositor last ate before passing the feces. A grass fed animal's feces will have a flash point around 120 degrees Celsius, where as human feces from an individual with a "meat and potato" diet would be approximately 280 degrees Celsius.
Lecithin is an organic compound.
Yes. Very much. You will get good quality manure out of the complete decomposition of feces.
The energy contained in the feces is not lost from the ecosystem. It can still be consumed by decomposers.
Yes, mold does grow on organic matter. For example, mold will grow on feces, and feces is organic matter.

That would be the beloved feces, more commonly known as poop.
Animal feces and dead plants that are decayed can become humus.
I have known some people whom I considered walking talking turds, but technically, feces is not a living organism. It is organic matter, and it contains microorganisms, but it is not an organism.
Dark brown or black topsoils get there color from organic material that decomposes - leaves, animal feces, etc. Desert soils have little organic material.
Substrate feeders eat the organic matter that accumulates at the bottom...and that includes faeces.
Millipedes are interesting insects and are considered to be detritivores. They mainly feed on organic matter found in soil, decomposing plants, and feces.
Excessive organic matter, especially decaying matter, can build up to toxic levels and kills freshwater fish. An example would be uneaten food or feces breaking down.
Some fertilizer that comes as decomposed plant matter, or livestock feces, are organic fertilizers. But fertilizers that come in a highly concentrated form and mixed with petroleum and other fossil fuel products are not organic. The latter form is most commonly used in large commercial crop operations.
The decomposers go to the decaying or dying material in order to decompose the organic material. They consume dead plants, animals or even our own feces, which are all decaying organic materials. They also carry out the natural process of decomposition :)
This mold is feces dependent and thrives on or near natural or organic fertilizers. Rhizopus also thrives in attics or crawl spaces where rodent excrement is found.
