Fungi and bacteria that depend on dead organic material for their existence are classified as saprophytes. These organisms play a crucial role in ecosystems by decomposing dead matter, which recycles nutrients back into the soil and supports new plant growth. By breaking down complex organic substances, saprophytes contribute to nutrient cycling and help maintain ecological balance.
