If you mean the ones in your mouth then this is your answer. Food gets caught between your teeth and the microorganisms feed on this. because they are so small the food passes through very quickly, undergoing a chemical change and becoming an acid. The acid then 'eats' at the teeth causing more chemical reactions causing the blackening and this is how we get the decay.

∙ 14y agofungi can not cause decay but it would be the other way around. worms and other insects will also speed up the decaying process then fungi amd other decomposers such as fungi break it down

Why does nature use the process of decay?
Decay refers to the decomposition of dead organic matter into simpler chemical compounds. It is caused by microorganisms called saprophytes, which break down the organic matter into tiny particles, which they then absorb.
When plants and animals die and decay do they become fertillizers?
decomposers are what breaks down dead plants and animals and cause them to decay quickly
Can microorganisms become extinct why?
yes.
What Substance is prepared from killed or weakened microorganisms?
vaccine
Can a dead bird be broken down by microorganisms?
Yes. Just imagine if they didn't. We would have them all around. Many are also eaten by other animals and worms as well as microorganisms.
What consumer causes decay?
Microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi.
What is a microorganisms that cause disease?
Microorganisms that cause disease are known as pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses and fungi.
What is the disadvantages of microorganisms?
The disadvantage of microorganisms is that many of them cause disease.
What is disadvantages of microorganisms?
The disadvantage of microorganisms is that many of them cause disease.
Does freezing and refrigerating food stop or prevent decay?
I think a refrigerator, slows down the process of food rotting as the microorganisms take more time to cause chemical reactions in cold weather.
Pathogens are micro-organisms that fight disease?
No. They are microorganisms that cause disease.
Do microorganisms cause disease?
Yes
What are prokaryotic cells that cause disease and decay?
Bacteria are prokaryotic cells that cause disease and decay.
How do microorganisms aid in the decay in an ecosystem?
thats because they need food so they feed on dead animals...
How do sewage treatment works use decay and microorganisms?
by have hard sex
Does decay release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere?
The main way in which decay releases carbon dioxide is through the respiration of the microorganisms which actually carry out the process and digest the dead matter.
Why do microorganisms grow on your food?
Microorganisms in food may cause harm by carrying disease-producing bacteria called pathogens. Pathogens harm humans in many different ways. The most common way that pathogens harm animals is by using toxins.
