the answer is scavengers

The consumers that eat dead organisms are called Decomposers.
Either scavengers they eat animals that were killed by another animal, or decomposers they rot the animals away, and of course there is carnivores that kill their prey and eat them.(Also called detritivore)
animals that feed on dead animals are called decomposers
Animals that feed only on dead organisms are detritivores.
Organisms that feed off of dead or decaying organisms are called scavangers. example: Vulture, Crab
animals that feed on only dead organisms is scavengers

What are the omnivore carnivore and herbivore's group are called?

Organisms that cannot synthesize their own food obtain it directly or indirectly from producers and are called heterotrophs ("other-feeders") or consumers-they acquire their energy and many of their nutrients prepackaged in the molecules that compose the bodies of other organisms.


What is an organism that eats producers or other organism for energy called?

There are different levels of consumers based on the order they come in on the food chain – primary consumer, secondary consumer, tertiary, etc. There is also a top consumer or top predator, meaning that organism is not preyed upon by other consumers. Specific examples of consumers are: hawks, mice, deer, snakes, moose, wolves, beetles, ants.


Can a consumers be predators?

In a conservative scientific sense, no because at the very base of the ecosystem are organisms that use sunlight for chemical conversions, e.g. plants, and various bacteria and archaea that may not in any way use other organisms as their main energy source. However, more loosely speaking even plants "predate" on chemicals released by sunlight.


What are the three roles of microscopic organism?

Predators that eat other predators are called secondary consumers or tertiary consumers. Secondary consumers are predators that eat predators that feed on autotrophs. Tertiary consumers feed on secondary consumers.
