No, lizards are not decomposers. Decomposers are organisms like bacteria and fungi that break down dead organic matter, while lizards are consumers that eat live prey such as insects and small animals.
Yes, decomposers like bacteria and fungi break down plant material, such as dead leaves and wood, into simpler substances. By doing so, they release nutrients back into the soil to be absorbed by plants and used for growth.
Mussels are filter feeders that primarily feed on plankton and other small particles in the water. They filter these particles from the water for food, rather than breaking down dead organic matter as decomposers do.
Ants are consumers because they obtain their nutrients by feeding on other organisms or organic matter. They do not play a primary role in breaking down dead organic material, which is characteristic of decomposers like fungi and bacteria.
Decomposers break down wastes of animals and plants(dead leaves and roots) into fertile topsoil with lots of humus. plants grow better in that soil and the herbivores and omnivores eat the plants. and the carnivores and some omnivores eat those herbivores. Its basically the food chain.
