Answer 2

Fungi are found on decaying organic matter and dead bodies of plants and animals.

Explanation:

• Decomposers are responsible for breaking down the dead and decaying organic matter of plants and animals.
• This mode of nutrition is called the saprophytic mode.
• Example: Fungi, Molds, and Mushrooms

During the saprophytic mode of nutrition

1. The proteins break down into their amino acids by breaking the peptide bonds by the enzyme protease.
2. Additionally, Lipids are broken down into glycerol and fatty acid by the enzyme lipases.
3. Due to amylases, starch is broken down into simple disaccharides whereas cellulose is broken down into glucose by cellulases.
