To decay or decompose refers to the process by which organic matter breaks down into simpler substances over time, often due to the action of microorganisms, fungi, and environmental factors. This natural process can occur in various contexts, such as the decomposition of dead plants and animals, which recycles nutrients back into the ecosystem. Decay typically involves a series of chemical and biological transformations, ultimately resulting in the return of matter to the soil and atmosphere.
