Answer 2

• a) The general name of organism Y is scavengers or detritivores. Scavengers eat the leftover food as well as the decaying organisms. They are called cleaners of the ecosystem because they clean the leftovers and keep the environment clean. There are two types of scavengers, one type eats the dead animals and the second type breaks the dead organic matter into simpler forms and digests it.
• b) Hyenas are an example of scavenger animals. Hyenas eat the dead animals in the forest.
• c) Decomposers is the general name used for organism Y simplify the complex dead animals. They secrete digestive juices on the surface of the dead matter and breakdown into a simple form. In this form, organism Y can absorb nutrients.
• d) Fungi, bacteria, earthworms, and even insects are decomposers generally found in the forests.
