A decomposer breaks down organic compounds in dead organic matter, and a detritivore eats dead and decaying matter.
Organic matter is organic compounds or mixtures of organic compounds.
Organic matter breaks down (decays) to form humus.
The organisms are detrivores such as bacteria and fungi. They break dead matter down into simpler compounds. The process of fermentation is one way in which this occurs.
All organic compounds contain carbon; most inorganic compounds doesn't contain carbon.
breaks down organic matter
Organic matter (or organic material) is matter that has come from a once-living organism; is capable of decay, or the product of decay; or is composed of organic compounds. The definition of organic matter varies upon the subject it is being used for.
All organic compounds contain carbon; most inorganic compounds doesn't contain carbon.
Fungi obtain energy by absorbing organic matter from their environment. They secrete enzymes that break down complex organic compounds into simpler molecules, which they can then absorb and use for energy. Fungi can obtain their nutrients from decaying organic matter, living organisms, or through mutualistic relationships with other organisms.
Organic matter is matter that is from living sources, such as animal manure, leaves, grass clippings etc. As the organic matter breaks down, worms, grubs and microorganisms incorporate it into the soil.
