Decomposers fit at the end of the food web, breaking down dead organic matter and waste products. They recycle nutrients back into the ecosystem, making them available for producers like plants. This process is essential for maintaining ecosystem health and stability, as it ensures the continuous flow of energy and matter. Without decomposers, ecosystems would accumulate dead material and nutrients would become locked in that matter, disrupting the food web.

The decomposers are at the top of a food web because they decompose dead bodies, but then there will be an arrow coming from the decomposer all the way back to the bottom of the food web because it provides soil i guess to provide energy for the plants at the bottom of the web. So it's basically connected to both the top and the bottom of the food web.
