No, decomposers do not eat tertiary consumers. Instead, decomposers, such as bacteria and fungi, break down dead organic matter, including the remains of tertiary consumers and other organisms. They play a crucial role in recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem, facilitating the growth of plants and supporting the food web.
