Three examples of decomposers are bacteria, fungi, and worms. Decomposers help carry out the process of decomposition by breaking down dead or decaying organisms. They are also known as saprotrophs.

Explain how decomposers and producers link kthe living and non-living parts of the environment?

Decomposers break down dead organic matter into nutrients that are then absorbed by producers, such as plants. Producers use these nutrients, along with sunlight and water, to create food through photosynthesis. This creates a cycle where nutrients move from decomposers to producers, linking the living and non-living parts of the environment.
