Explanation:

Decomposers and scavengers break down dead plants and animals. They also break down the waste (poop) of other organisms.

Predators are an important part of a healthy ecosystem. Predators remove vulnerable prey, such as the old, injured, sick, or very young, leaving more food for the survival and success of healthy prey animals.

Also, by controlling the size of prey populations, predators help slow down the spread of disease.

Answer:Decomposers are organisms that break down dead or decaying organisms and in doing so, carry out the natural process of decomposition. Like herbivores and predators, decomposers are heterotrophic, meaning that they use organic substrates to get their energy, carbon and nutrients for growth and development.

Decomposers and scavengers break down dead plants and animals. They also break down the waste (poop) of other organisms. Decomposers are very important for any ecosystem. If they weren't in the ecosystem, the plants would not get essential nutrients and dead matter and waste would pile up.

Decomposers you can see include earthworms, snails, slugs, and fungi, such as mushroom
