What else can I help you with?
What breaks down dead?
Decomposers break down dead material. They break down dead plants and animals and absorb their nutrients back in to the soil.
These organisms break down material into nutrients for food producers?
Decomposers such as bacteria and fungi break down organic material into nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus that can be absorbed by plants. This nutrient recycling process is essential for maintaining healthy soils and supporting food production by making these nutrients available to plants.
Do plants break down dcaying material?
Yes, plants can break down decaying material through a process called decomposition. They do this by absorbing nutrients from the decaying material through their roots, helping to recycle nutrients back into the soil. This process is essential for nutrient cycling in ecosystems.
What best describes the function of the digestive system?
To break down food into nutrients.
Break down essential nutrients and return them to the soil?
Bacteria typically break down essential nutrients and return them to the soil. Sometimes fungi will break down essential nutrients and return them to the soil as well.
The majority of minerals nutrients and organic material is found in which layer of soil?
The majority of mineral nutrients and organic material is found in the topsoil layer of soil. Topsoil is typically rich in nutrients and organic matter due to the presence of decomposing plant and animal material, as well as microbial activity that helps break down organic matter into nutrients.
What nutrients do carbohydrase break down?
carbohydrates :)
What do lysosomes use to break down cellular waste and foreign substances?
Lysosomes use enzymes to break down cellular waste and foreign substances.
How do decomposers help the ecosystem recycle nutrients when a tree dies?
Decomposers break down dead, dying, or decaying organic material (e.g. dead animals) into their original organic components - Carbon, phosphates, nitrates, etc. and returns them to the soil. They can then be used by producers/autotrophs for growth, and are passed on to consumers, etc.
Can ice break down a material?
Yes if that material is softer than the ice it will break
Do peanut shells make good compost material?
Yes, peanut shells can be used as compost material because they are rich in carbon and break down relatively quickly, adding nutrients to the soil.
What does chemical digestion refer to?
Breaking down a material or substance. For example: When humans eat, they break down the food using chemical (hydrochloric acid) digestion, which breaks down the food into the core nutrients.
