There is no such animal as the scaly armadillo but the term is sometimes used for the pangolin - a similar appearing but totally different animal from Africa.Pangolins are insectivorous. Most of their diet consists of various species of ants and termites and may be supplemented by other insects, especially larvae.
Earthworms cannot really be classed as such; they eat any biological matter they can find. It's most often rotting matter (and thus they can be classed as primarily 'detritovores') but occasionally they do eat live matter. (But don't worry, only small things.) But they have digestive systems that can cope with plant and animal matter.

phytoplankton, green sea turtle ,manatees and dugongPhytoplankton are not herbivores. They get their energy through photosynthesis. Some radiolaria and foraminifera are herbivores for they eat the algae that produce sugars by photosynthesis. And many other plankton are also herbivorous while their associates are carnivorous, omnivorous or are detritovores. Google will help in listing these microscopic herbivores. Several phyla are involved.Read more: What_herbivores_live_in_the_ocean
Yes, all fungi are heterotrophic, meaning they obtain nutrients by consuming organic matter from their environment. They cannot produce their own food through photosynthesis like plants do.
They are both decomposers. This isn't a scienific name however. It is a scientific term.
Well, friend, an animal that eats bugs is actually called a carnivore because they are eating other animals. Herbivores are animals that mainly eat plants and not other animals. It's all about what they choose to munch on in nature's big buffet. Just remember, every critter plays an important role in the circle of life.
Animals: Motile heterotrophs that are multicellular and widely dispersed over the earth. Plants: Sessile autotrophs that are multicellular and dispersed widely over the earth. Protists: Comprising both autotrophs and heterotrophs these, generally, single celled organisms are usually found in a watery environment. Fungi: These decomposing, multicelled detritovores are only found on the land where they are reasonably well dispersed.
because they eat! its obvious, they eat.
