Most dead plants can be eaten. Otherwise it will break up, turn into dirt, and provide frest dirt for more plants to live on. Dead animals are food for scavengers, like vultures, hyenas, and more. SOmetimes lions eat food that is already dead. Uneaten dead animals can also turn to dirt.
A living thing that breaks down dead animals and plants for food is called a decomposer.

Green plants use a process called photosynthesis to make food from sunlight. Only green plants can make their own food. Other plants (like mushrooms) and animals do not make their own food, but get nutrition from green plants (or dead green plants). Animals do not make food from sunlight. If they could, they would not need to eat.

A reducer completes the food chain or actually the cycle. Reducers, or decomposers, decompose the dead animals or dead plants, releasing minerals into the soil.
