Decomposers
Nutrients that contain nitrogen as well as carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen are called proteins
increase in concentration of a pollutant from one link in a food chain to another. Biomagnification is the bioaccumulation of a substance up the food chain by transfer of residues of the substance in smaller organisms that are food for larger organisms in the chain. It generally refers to the sequence of processes that results in higher concentrations in organisms at higher levels in Biomagnification: the food chain (at higher trophic levels). These processes result in an organism having higher concentrations of a substance than is present in the organism's food. Biomagnification can result in higher concentrations of the substance than would be expected if water were the only exposure mechanism. Accumulation of a substance only through contact with water is known as bioconcentration..
The ultimate source for living thins is the sun. This is because the sun provides things on the absolute bottom of the food chain with food. They are then used as food for the next living thing on the food chain. Things on the bottom of the food chain are called producers. They perform photosynthesis to convert the suns light into useable energy. Organisms the can create their own food are called autotrophs.
An example of the transfer of energy is the food chain. This is different from movement of basic elements in the ecosystem because energy gets used, not just moved.
Decomposition
The organism that produces food in the food chain for other organisms is the producer. The producer is usually a green plant that is eaten by an omnivore or a herbivore. And the food chain continues
Because they break dead organisms down into basic chemicals which can then be used by other organisms to grow and build their bodies, which can then be eaten by other organisms, thus continuing the food chain.They are the final stage of returning nutrients back into the environment.
Organisms that recycle nutrients are called decomposers. They take previous life and decompose it down to basic elements. Without these, nutrients would be lost, nitrogen would be stuck, and all energy would have to come from the sun.
well a food chain is every where if you mean what is a food chain it starts with a producer then a consumer eats the producer then when the consumer is dead a decomposer breaks down the dead organisms and uses the nutrients.producer-a plant that uses sunlight to make sugars. consumers-a living thing that depends on producers.decomposers-an organism that breaks down dead organisms and uses the nutrients.

Organisms that break down wastes an dead organisms and return the raw material to the environment are called decomposers.
the organisms in the bottom of the food chain are usually producers.
Yes, all organisms are part of a food chain. My son just had this question on his science test.
how many organisms are in the first food chain
i do not no...
The reason why the food that plants make is important not only to the plant themselves, but to other organisms, is because the nutrients that the plant makes from photosynthesis not only helps the plant but other organisms that feed off of the plant and the plant's nutrients.
In a food chain a consumer, also known as a heterotroph is an organism that must feed on other organisms to obtain energy and nutrients. They include animals, fungi, and many types of bacteria and protists. Consumers can be divided into herbivores, predators, and parasites.
