Best Answer

Deciduous trees start to drop their leaves in the autumn leaving the forest with a layer of leaves. The leaves decay and eventually become part of the fertile floor of the forest. The decaying process happens in many ways. Animals and insects ingest (eat) the leaves converting it to fecal material adding fertilizer to the ground. Worms chew through the leaves and fungus (mold) and bacteria also help consume the ground cover accomplishing the same thing.
