because without them there would be dead living things all over this plant- science teacher (Kendall)
decomposers.
Fungi have the role of decomposers in the food chain.
Decomposers break down dead animals, therefore they are good to the plants (producers) which are the base of the food chain/web.
There are many roles played by decomposers in a food chain. These decomposers serve to bring the circle of life full circle.
Producers, consumers, and decomposers.

food chain
The producers (plants), the consumers (animals) and the decomposers (bacteria) use the food chain.
Decomposers consume because that's what their part of the food chain is. They are decomposers because they consume dead and decaying matter. They do not consume because they are decomposers.
A food chain is made from producers, consumers, and decomposers. producers- any kind of plants consumers- herbivores, omnivores, carnivores decomposers- break down waste and put nutrients back in the soil
Energy and nutrients are transferred from producers (plants) to consumers (animals) and then to decomposers (bacteria, fungi) in the food chain. This transfer of energy and nutrients forms the basis of the ecosystem and helps sustain life by recycling resources.
