Answer 2

Explanation:

Scavengers are animals that consume dead organisms that have died from causes other than predation.While scavenging generally refers to carnivores feeding on carrion, it is also a herbivorous feeding behavior.Scavengers play an important role in the ecosystem by consuming dead animal and plant material. Decomposers and detritivores complete this process, by consuming the remains left by scavengers.

Scavengers aid in overcoming fluctuations of food resources in the environment.The process and rate of scavenging is affected by both biotic and abiotic factors, such as carcass size, habitat, temperature, and seasons.
