I think you'd call that "organic decomposition".
Yes, that is why we have million of bacteria, mainly Ecoli, in our digestinal tract.
Some do, yes. Its not exactly "eating" but a process known as "phagocytosis."
Nitrogen fixation is the process by which bacteria remove nitrogen from the air and make it available to plants.
Bacteria do not "drink" in the same way humans or animals do. They absorb nutrients and water directly through their cell walls from their surrounding environment. This process allows them to obtain the necessary nutrients to survive and grow.
When an amoeba eats a bacteria, it engulfs the bacteria into its cytoplasm through a process called phagocytosis. The bacteria is then enclosed in a food vacuole and digested by enzymes within the vacuole, providing the amoeba with nutrients for energy and growth. Any waste products from the digestion process are expelled from the cell.

Decomposition is the name of the process carried out by bacteria in compost piles to make nutrients available to plants again. Decomposition requires consumption and excretion of alternately layered, carbon- and nitrogen-rich, small-sized recyclables. It also will involve the changeover of macro- and micro-organisms from living to nutrient-rich, non-living factors with death.
Decomposers, such as bacteria and fungi, break down dead organisms and organic matter into simpler nutrients. These nutrients are then released into the soil where they can be taken up by plants for growth and development. This process is essential for maintaining the balance of nutrients in ecosystems and supporting plant life.
Bacteria are considered recyclers in the environment because they play a crucial role in breaking down organic matter such as dead plants and animals, releasing nutrients back into the ecosystem. This process, known as decomposition, helps to recycle nutrients like carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus, making them available for other organisms to use.
Decomposers such as bacteria and fungi break down organic material into nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus that can be absorbed by plants. This nutrient recycling process is essential for maintaining healthy soils and supporting food production by making these nutrients available to plants.

Nitrogen fixation is the process by which bacteria remove nitrogen from the air and make it available to plants.
One of the most important ecological roles of bacteria is nutrient recycling. Bacteria help decompose dead organisms and recycle nutrients back into the ecosystem, making them available for other living organisms. This process is essential for maintaining the balance of nutrients in ecosystems.
Fungi and bacteria are both decomposers. decomposers get nutrients by breaking down dead organic matter. while the exact process of ingesting the nutrients may be different, the basic idea is the same.
Bacteria do not "drink" in the same way humans or animals do. They absorb nutrients and water directly through their cell walls from their surrounding environment. This process allows them to obtain the necessary nutrients to survive and grow.
