What is Decomposers and Detrivors about?
Detritivores are organisms that ingest dead organic matter and break it into smaller pieces, while decomposers, primarily fungi and bacteria, release enzymes to chemically digest this matter. Examples of detritivores include earthworms and dung beetles, whereas decomposers include bacteria and fungi. Detritivores facilitate the initial breakdown of detritus, enhancing nutrient availability for decomposers, which ultimately release inorganic nutrients back into the soil for plant use.
