Solution

Decomposers break down dead plants and animals. They also break down the waste of other organisms. Decomposers are very important for any ecosystem. If they weren't in the ecosystem, the plants would not get essential nutrients, and dead matter and waste would pile up. Decomposers clean the nature by changing the complex organic materials present in dead organisms and waste materials what we throw out into the streets, into simple non-organic materials (minerals) which finally enter into the soil, and make the soil these are natural fertile producers. If decomposers are not present our earth would have filled with garbage and dead organisms.if all this remains on earth since it's formation we would have not found space to step on the ground.
