Matter leaves the bodies of living things through respiration (exhaling carbon dioxide), excretion (removing waste products via urine and feces), and sweating (eliminating excess water and ions through the skin).

Detritus is anything that is left behind, non-living organic matter. For example, it may include dead animal bodies, such as roadkill, or dead plants.
Yes, grass growing is an example of matter and energy cycling through living things. Through the process of photosynthesis, grass absorbs energy from sunlight and converts it into food. This energy is used by the grass to grow, while the nutrients in the soil contribute to the matter cycle as the grass takes them up to build its tissues.

An example is the carbon cycle, where carbon is exchanged between living organisms (through processes like photosynthesis and respiration) and the environment (such as the atmosphere, soil, and oceans). This cycle ensures that carbon is continuously recycled and available for use by different organisms throughout ecosystems.

Matter and body are interrelated. The body is made of matter for example but not all matter is body matter.
