Solution

The correct option is C Decomposers
Microorganisms like bacteria, fungi etc are known as decomposers. They breakdown the dead remains of plants and animals and mix them in soil as nutrients for plants. By doing this, they keep the earth's environment clean. Thus they are called nature's cleaners.

In the absence of decomposers whole earth could get filled with dead bodies of plants and animals.
