Detritivores Importance Decomposers Process Organic Explain Recycling Matter

Decomposers and detritivores are essential for recycling matter as detritivores speed up decay by breaking down material, while decomposers simplify organic matter into inorganic compounds, releasing essential elements.

I decompositori e i detritivori sono essenziali per il riciclo della materia perché i detritivori accelerano la decomposizione frammentando il materiale, mentre i decompositori scompongono la materia organica in composti inorganici semplici, rilasciando elementi essenziali.

Front Explain the importance of decomposers and detritivores in recycling of matter in ecosystems.
Back Importance of decomposers: & detritivores
  • Detritivores speed up decay process by feeding on detritus and breaking it into smaller pieces of organic material
  • Decomposers break down complex organic mols into simpler soluble ones that they absorb, through this process they release stored inorganic compounds & elements back into env
