Protozoans can play a role in decomposition, but they are not classified as decomposers in the traditional sense like fungi and bacteria. Instead, protozoans are primarily single-celled eukaryotic organisms that can consume bacteria, organic matter, and other microorganisms. In the process, they help break down organic material and recycle nutrients in ecosystems, contributing to the overall decomposition process. Thus, while they aid in decomposition, they are more accurately described as consumers rather than primary decomposers.
