An organism that gets energy by feeding on dead materials and wastes.
Fungi are the primary and common of decomposers of litter in many ecosystems.
Various types of worms are also considered decomposers, as they act as scavengers.
Also some bacteria are decomposers.
An example of a decomposer is bacteria; another is fungi.
A non-example of a decomposer would be a predator that actively hunts and consumes other organisms for food without breaking down dead organic matter.
An example of a decomposer in a river is bacteria. These microscopic organisms break down organic matter in the water, such as dead plants and animals, into simpler nutrients that can be recycled back into the ecosystem.
Yeast is a decomposer. Yeast breaks down organic material, such as sugars, through the process of fermentation to obtain energy.
Fungi can act as both decomposers, breaking down organic matter, and as consumers, feeding on living or dead organisms to obtain nutrients.
Yes bacteria is a decomposer.
An example of a decomposer is bacteria; another is fungi.
A non-example of a decomposer would be a predator that actively hunts and consumes other organisms for food without breaking down dead organic matter.
A buffalo is not a decomposer. It is a consumer.
for example a maggot is a decomposer and it eats human flesh
Earthworms
No, they do not.
