Fungus is the organism that feed on dead an decaying matter.Animals that feed on dead remains are called Scavengers eg Crow,Vulture.
metabolism.
The process of breaking down complex food material and converting it into simple organic form is called digestion.
Multicellular organisms that obtain food by breaking down decaying material are called saprotrophs. They play an important role in the ecosystem by decomposing organic matter and recycling nutrients back into the environment. Fungi, some bacteria, and certain insects are examples of saprotrophs.
Bacteria and fungi attack the dead plant or animal and start breaking it down as their food.
breaking down of complex food material to simpler ones.
catabolism
decomposers absorb food from dead material
Bacteria use food like dead tissues for their own growth and reproduction and the rest becomes separate organic and inorganic chemicals that other organisms can use.
Toadstools are "fungi". Most fungi obtain their food by breaking down dead organic material and absorbing the chemicals produced.
Decomposers (or saprotrophs) are organisms that consume dead or decaying organisms, and, in doing so, carry out the natural process of decompositionSapotrophs or (if a plant) saprophytes.
Organisms that break down wastes an dead organisms and return the raw material to the environment are called decomposers.
Breaking down a material or substance. For example: When humans eat, they break down the food using chemical (hydrochloric acid) digestion, which breaks down the food into the core nutrients.
