Why does little decay occur in desert?
When an animal dies in the desert, it quickly becomes a meal for many desert scavengers and has little chance to decay naturally. In some deserts the humidity is so low that if the body of an animal is able to avoid being eaten by a scavenger, it will desiccate - dry like a natural mummy and not decay due to the low levels of moisture in the air.
What is responsible for decay of dead organisms?
Bacteria and other small organisms, such as insects are responsible for the decay of dead organisms.
What is responsible the decay of dead organisms?

Why do only the hard parts of organisms generally leaved fossils?
When an organism dies, its soft parts often decay quickly or are eaten by animals
What is important in decay?
microscopic organisms are the major causes of decay.
Is decay a micro-organism?
Decay, in itself, is a process.However, decay is caused by decomposing bacteria, which are micro-organisms.
What is a desert community?
A desert community refers to the species and organisms that live in a desert area. This is the desert biome which includes plants and animals and other organisms.
Is a desert alive?
No, a desert is not alive but a desert has many living organisms.
Do organisms decay quicker whit more sunlight?
Decreased organic decay and decomposition in winter is due to the fact that the organisms causing decay (bacteria, fungi, insects) either cannot survive the low temperatures, or they become sluggish or dormant. When the temperatures rise, they become active.
What would cool more quickly night desert or swamp?
desert
What is one way in which decay by micro organisms is a nuisance?
by muting
Does oxygen affect decay why or why not?
Oxygen does affect decay because it allows aerobic organisms to break down organic matter for energy through respiration. This process accelerates the decomposition of organic materials. In the absence of oxygen, anaerobic organisms are involved in decay, which occurs more slowly and produces different byproducts.
