Herbivorous macro- and micro-organisms are the contributors to the break down of dead plants in a compost pile. Beneficial bacteria and fungi play the initially critical roles, which then are assumed by sub-surface and surface invertebrates such as crickets and earthworms in expelling nitrogen in plant- and soil-friendly, soluble nitrogen form. But the macro- and micro-organisms will get their work done only if the proper recyclable materials fill the pile and if proper procedure is heeded in terms of air, heat, light, and moisture levels.
A living thing that breaks down dead animals and plants for food is called a decomposer.
decomposes break down the remains of dead plants and animals.

Yes, dead flowers can be composted. Composting dead flowers helps to break down the organic material and enrich the soil with nutrients for plants to grow.
decomposes break down the remains of dead plants and animals.
Yes. When you compost something, it breaks down and returns nutrients to the soil.
Yes, you can put weeds in compost to create nutrient-rich soil. The decomposition process in composting breaks down the weeds and turns them into valuable nutrients for plants.
