Scavenger obtains their food from dead bodies of animals.
Explanation:
- Scavengers are organisms that mainly consume rotten biomass, such as meat and rotten plant materials. They usually consume animals that have died of natural causes or have been killed by another carnivore.
- Scavengers help to the breakdown of organic matter. These small pieces are eaten by the decomposer.
- Decomposers eat dead substances and break them down into chemical components.
- They play an important role in the food web.
- They keep the ecosystem free of dead animals and carrion.
- They break down organic matter and feed it back to the ecosystem as nutrients. Vultures, blowflies, hyenas, crabs, red shrimp, and eels are examples of scavengers.
- Material recycling brought about by scavengers and decomposers helps define the biogeochemical cycle that powers the biosphere.
