How are scavengers and decomposers the same?
Actually, decomposers and scavengers aren't the same. Decomposers are living things that decompose animals. Scavengers are living things that eat parts of dead organism.-Hope this helps!
Does decomposers reduce the remains of living things or that of the nonliving things?
Decomposers reduce the remains of dead living things which were once alive, like dead leaves/plants (litter) and other dead animals. Decomposers break down dead living things into nutrients to add to the soil for plants to grow.
What are dead microorganisms called?
The living things are called decomposers (also known as detrivores).
How do abiotic or non-living things help decomposers?
This question is based on a misconception. Abiotic factors are non living parts of an environment, such as temperature and rock type. Biotic factors are living things, which includes decomposers,
Explain how decomposers and producers link kthe living and non-living parts of the environment?
Producers make their own food from non-living things like the sun to make their own food using photosynthesis to get energy. Living things like herbivores eat producers for energy. Decomposers break down non-living things and then fertilizes things like producers. I don't really know the answer that well but that's how I explained it I don't know if I will get good marks for it but it will do! <3

Is dirt a decomposes?

Is monkey a decomposer?

Why is decomposers necessary in an ecosytem?
They are needed to give nutrients to other living things.
What would you least expect in a pyramid of numbers?
Decomposers feeding on living things.
