Producers make food for most organisms: they depend on them for their survival. Decomposers deliver nutrients back inot the soil and decompose dead/decaying animals/plants.
without producers, consumers could not survive because producers are basically plants, which herbivores eat, and then carnivores consume them, so it depends a lot on producers.
It is a decomposer. It breaks down all the dead substances around it.
The stability of a food web depends on the primary producers, which are the only ones that can transform sunlight , into chemical energy that is necessary for all species to survive.
The living organisms that are dominant in a particular ecosystem depends on the ecosystem. In the rainforest for example, plants are the dominant organisms. In the desert, the animals are the dominant organisms.
It all depends on the number of producers, how many consumers there are. In a desert there are may be only a hundred but in a tropical rain forest there are millions.
A consumer, it depends on other plant/animals as a food source.

Well, it depends on which ecosystem. In most ecosystems the plants are the producers and the rodents and insects are the first level consumers. Plants like grass and weeds are consumed by field mice and other rodents.

Fungi and bacteria are important aspect of the ecosystem, and are known as decomposers. Decomposers break down materials that can be used by consumers, particularly zooplankton.
The inverted biomass pyramid is where the weight of the producers is less than the weight of the consumers. The inverted pyramid is more prevalent in aquatic ecosystems, as in such an environment, the biomass depends on the reproductive ability and the lifespan of the species. The best example is the pond ecosystem, where the mass of the producers of the ecosystem, which are generally the phytoplanktons is always less than the mass of the consumers in the ecosystem, which are generally fish and other insects.
Well, at the first level you have the producers. Everything above that depends on them for food. So, if these producers (in this case, the trees) were to be cut down, then there would be a smaller amount of resources that the ecosystem needs to survive.
It depends on the species. Insect larvae may be decomposers, predators, herbivores, or parasites.
