Dead organisms are important to the environment because they provide food for many other living organisms. Dead organisms also become a part of the soil and allow plants and animals to feed.
An organism considered dead can no longer perform life functions and does not respond to stimuli. In contrast, a living organism actively maintains homeostasis and responds to its environment to sustain life processes. The concept of an organism being "dead and alive" simultaneously does not align with biological definitions.
If a dead organism does not decay, it may become mummified or fossilized depending on the conditions it is in. In cases where decay does not occur, the dead organism may stick around for an extended period, potentially impacting the ecosystem by not releasing nutrients back into the environment.
Yes a scavenger is just a type of organism, which means that this organism does not primarily catch its own food but instead feeds off the wast or kill of another organism.
A trace of a long dead organism could be a fossilized imprint, track, or remains left behind in sedimentary rock. These traces provide valuable information about the organism's existence, behavior, and environment in the past. Scientists study these traces to learn more about ancient life on Earth.
The diversity of functions an organism can hold in its environment, and the diversity of habitats in which it can live. (Example) A shark is very niche diverse because it can live in an environment with live fish and eat them, or an environment with mostly dead fish and just eat the dead ones. That's why sharks are "living fossils."

It maintains a stable environment for the cell and the entire organism.

What the importance of interaction between living organisms and the environment

a composer is an organism that feeds on living organism
One factor that is not important in determining an organism's chances of survival is the color of its eyes. Eye color does not impact an organism's ability to survive in its environment or adapt to changes.
both, but the environment influences the organism more. this causes the organism to change and they start to influence the environment a.k.a THEY ADAPT
the plankton is the single-celled organism that eats dead organism.
