Question

what is decomposer ​

Answer 1

Explanation:

While decomposers break down dead, organic materials, detritivores—like millipedes, earthworms, and termites—eat dead organisms and wastes. ... Decomposers feed on dead things: dead plant materials such as leaf litter and wood, animal carcasses, and feces. They perform a valuable service as Earth's cleanup crew.

Answer 2

Decomposers are microorganisms, especially bacteria and fungi, that break down waste and dead remains of organisms.

• They convert complex organic substances into simple inorganic molecules, which go into the soil and are once again taken up by plants.

• Decomposers ensure the cyclic movement of matter in nature.

• They prevent pollution and make sure that the earth is not covered with organic waste.
