Answer:
Role of microbes in the ecosystem:
- Production of oxygen: Microorganisms release oxygen in the ecosystem. Microbes tare main producer of oxygen in water bodies like the ocean. Cyanobacteria is one of the main oxygen-producing bacteria.
- Fixation of nitrogen: One of the most important roles of microbes is to fix free nitrogen from the atmosphere into a form which can be consumed by the plants. Rhizobium is one such bacteria.
- Decomposition: Microbes help to decompose the dead matter of plants, animals and organic wastes into smaller organic molecules. Thus they help in cleaning the ecosystem.
- Microorganism like fungi and bacteria found in ruminant animals help in the digestion of complex food like carbohydrates.
- Important microorganism found in the root nodules of plants is beneficial for plants as they absorb nutrients from the soil and supply it to the plants.
- Microorganism help in completing the natural cycles of the ecosystem by converting the inorganic substance into organic substance.
