because special consumers like maggots eat abiotic (dead) things like planets and animals so if there were no "special" consumers there would be dead bodies

Why are there more producers than consumers in any stable ecosystem?

There are typically more producers than consumers in a stable ecosystem because producers form the base of the food chain and support all higher trophic levels. This pyramid shape reflects the energy transfer between organisms, with producers capturing energy from the sun and consumers relying on the energy stored in plants. So, the abundance of producers is essential to sustain the ecosystem.


What are five examples of biotic and biotic factors that are in your ecosystem?

Five living parts of an ecosystem would consist of producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers and decomposers. These all come together and make an ecosystem.


Is a ecosystem or herbivores or nutrients and minerals most important in a food chain?

All play important roles in a food chain. Ecosystem provides the habitat and resources for organisms to survive. Herbivores are primary consumers that consume producers for energy. Nutrients and minerals are essential for the growth and development of organisms at all trophic levels in the food chain.


Decomposers producers predators and consumers are all what?

They are all types of organisms in an ecosystem. Decomposers break down dead organisms, producers create food through photosynthesis, predators hunt and consume other organisms, and consumers feed on producers or other consumers for energy.


Which living organisms are importants in ecosystem?

The living organisms that are dominant in a particular ecosystem depends on the ecosystem. In the rainforest for example, plants are the dominant organisms. In the desert, the animals are the dominant organisms.
