What is responsible the decay of dead organisms?
Bacteria and other small organisms, such as insects are responsible for the decay of dead organisms.
What is most responsible for the decay of organisms?
Decomposers eat the dead organisms. For example, worms and weeds, and sometimes scavengers like crows, vultures and ravens, eat dead organisms. EDIT: Bacteria
What is the organism that causes the decay of dead plant and animal matter?
The term for an organism that causes decay is decomposers, such as bacteria and fungi. they chemically break down organic matter for food. the decay caused by the decomposers is part of a process that produces detritus, small pieces of dead and decaying plant/animal remains.

What is the name of the group of organisms that cause dead organic material to decay?
decomposition
How do nonphotosynthetic organisms obtain the carbon molecules necessary for life?
From dead and decay matter.
What measures rates of decay and estimates how long and organisms been dead?
Radio carbon dating
Organisms such as decay bacteria that help recycle dead organic matter are called?
I think its called a decomposer.
What break downs dead organisms into simpler forms?
Decomposers - usually microbes are responsible for breaking dead organisms down into their simple forms. This process is responsible for the recycling nutrients back into the environment. An example of a decomposer is bacteria.

In dead organisms what change would you expect over time?
Dead organisms (unless specially preserved) will decay, and the soft tissue will rot and eventually disappear, leaving behind only bones or shells (for those organisms that have bones or shells).
