After a while, nutrients would not be available for plants to use in growing, because the nutrients would be locked up in non-decaying dead organic matter.
I'm not sure which nutrient would become the limiter first. Probably carbon or phosphorus.
Their main role is to recycle nutrients in dead organisms and their wastesIf 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.
The plants would not have enough nutrients from the soil because the decomposers are not around to decompose dead things and get the nutrients back into the soil.
If there was no decomposers in an ecosystem then all the remains and waste of animals and plants would be lying around for there would be no decompostiton of that waste. Also, if there was no decomposers then none of that natural nutrients can be returned back to the ecosystem.
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.
Without decomposers dead animals would just lay dead on earth forever.
If decomposers were not t the end of all food chains then the food chains would not be able to work. This is because the nutrients would not be returned to the producers.
If all the decomposers in an ecosystem were destroyed then the ecosystem would all apart. This is because they give the nutrients back to the soil in order for new organisms to grow.
If there were no decomposers, all the plants and animals who have died would still be laying around on the ground and at the bottom of the rivers and seas. Life itself would stop. Within the decomposers live bacteria and other single celled organisms called protists, which help digest the dead matter. The nutrients locked in dead leaves and animals are then returned to the earth to be used by living organisms.
our earth would be stinky dirty there would be dead animals everywhere
If the decomposers of the world disappeared then there would be a lot of dead things lying around the world. Humans would also not get all the nutrients they needed because plants wouldn't be able to survive.
Without decomposers, dead leaves, dead insects, and dead animals would pile up everywhere. Imagine what the world would look like!
it mixes up with soil and the soil rich in nutrients
