उत्तर
- Forests function as a self-sustaining ecosystem in nature. Whatever is created in the forest is used by different parts of the forest and is naturally recycled.
- All animals (herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores) rely on plants for sustenance. Herbivores consume plants. Carnivores consume herbivores.
- Omnivores consume both vegetation and animals. When plants and animals die, microbes (bacteria and fungi) break down their remnants and release nutrients into the soil.
- Living plants' roots receive nutrients from the soil. This process is called nutrient recycling, and it ensures that nothing goes to waste in the forest.
