Beach fleas, also known as sand hoppers or amphipods, are not decomposers. They are scavengers that feed on detritus and decaying organic matter found on beaches. Decomposers are organisms like bacteria and fungi that break down dead organic material into simpler substances. Beach fleas play a role in the decomposition process indirectly by consuming and breaking down organic matter.
Beach fleas, also known as sandhoppers or amphipods, play a role in the ecosystem but are not traditional decomposers. They primarily feed on detritus, algae, and decaying organic matter, helping to break down these materials and recycle nutrients. While they contribute to the decomposition process indirectly by consuming and processing organic matter, their primary role is that of a scavenger rather than a true decomposer like bacteria or fungi.
yes there are pretty butterflies
A beach flea is any of a group of various amphipod crustaceans of the family Talitridae, which live on beaches and jump like fleas.
No, a native water-flea is not a decomposer. Water-fleas, such as Daphnia, are primarily herbivorous or omnivorous, feeding on algae and microorganisms in aquatic environments. Decomposers, like certain fungi and bacteria, break down dead organic matter, recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem, which is not the role of water-fleas.
Crabs, birds , turtles , sand fleas , hermit crabs, sand dollars , and a lot of other animals in the sea to ;)
I do not have fleas, but it is possible for humans to fleas. Usually though fleas stick to dogs and cats etc.
No, they are not decomposers.
While cat fleas (Ctenocephalides felis) and dog fleas (Ctenocephalides cannis) are two different species, most of the fleas found on dogs are actually cat fleas.
Fleas on a rabbit are just called fleas, and a rabbit with fleas is just called a rabbit with fleas. If your rabbit has fleas, the safest way to treat it is to take the rabbit to a vet.
In the ocean, decomposers such as bacteria, fungi, and detritivores like marine worms, crustaceans, and mollusks break down organic matter. These organisms play a crucial role in recycling nutrients and breaking down dead organisms, contributing to the ocean's ecosystem health.
Sand fleas, also known as beach hoppers, do not swim back to the ocean with the tide. They are not adapted for swimming in water and typically burrow into the sand or vegetation to avoid being swept away by the tide.
Animals such as sand crabs, clams, ghost crabs, and sand fleas can be found living in beach sand. These creatures are well adapted to burrow and survive in the sandy environment near the shoreline.
