Things would break down extremely slowly (mostly from ultraviolet and abrasion),
much like what happens today with most plastic.
If there are no decomposers, dead organic matter would not be broken down and recycled. This would lead to a buildup of dead material, nutrient depletion in the soil, and hamper the growth of new plants. The ecosystem would become unbalanced and eventually collapse.
If all the grass was removed, it would significantly impact the cricket population as they rely on grass for shelter, food, and breeding grounds. The lack of grass would disrupt their habitat and lead to a decline in their population due to food scarcity and loss of hiding spots from predators. Ultimately, the cricket population would struggle to survive without grass.
If the number of decomposers decreased, there would be an accumulation of dead organic matter, which could lead to nutrient depletion in the soil. This could negatively impact plant growth and reproduction due to a lack of essential nutrients. Overall, it would disrupt the nutrient cycling process and potentially decrease the plant population over time.
Nothing. There is a misconception that there is an energetic cycle in an ecosystems but that is erroneous. There is a cycle in nitrogen and other nutrients that decomposers engender and, eventually, plants absorb but there is zero energy content in those as plants take 100 of the energy from the sun. The purport of decomposers is to return nutrients to the soil, not energy. Energy only flows in one direction in the biological world starting and getting dispersed out by the different biological organisms until is thoroughly lost to the entropy in the universe. A decomposer is yet another organism that consumes the energy amassed by the plants from the sun and disperses it out.
Without decomposers, dead organic matter would not be broken down and recycled, leading to an accumulation of waste material. This would result in a decline in nutrient availability for plants and disrupt the nutrient cycling process, ultimately impacting the entire ecosystem's health and functioning.
if all the decomposers were removed the fertility would wouldnt grow :)

plant growth would be affected.
If all the decomposers were to die, there would be no organic nutrients and all the dead plants would ruin the animals' habitat; the ecosystem would be filled with plant and animal waste, and there would be no decomposition of waste material.
It would be a mineral it would no longer be soil!!lol ha ha i got to ansower this

what happens in a forest habitat without top carnivores
I don't know ask someone else!!
It wouldn't be soil any more, it would just be some minerals... And i think you meant decomposer's not decomposes..
