Question

How do decomposers support primary producers in the ecosystem?

पर्याय

• By directly providing food sources

• By making nutrients bioavailable through nutrient release

• By protecting them from predators

• By improving water availability

Answer 1

Decomposers support primary producers by releasing inorganic nutrients such as nitrates and phosphates into soil and water, making them bioavailable for absorption. This nutrient cycling is essential for plant growth and continuation of the food chain.
