What are some examples of biotic factors in an ecosystem? Examples of biotic factors include any animals, plants, trees, grass, bacteria, moss, or molds that you might find in an ecosystem. In general, biotic factors are the living components of an ecosystem and are sorted into three groups: producers or autotrophs, consumers or heterotrophs, and decomposers or detritivores. Examples of biotic factors include: Grass as producers (autotrophs). Mouse, deer, and owl as consumers (heterotrophs). And earthworms as decomposers (detritivores). To further understand the term biotic factors, it's helpful to look at the meaning of the terms biotic and abiotic.

What are detritivores? Detritivores eat detritus, namely organic material left from the death of an organism. In other words, they eat dead plants and animals.hey are basically organisms that eat organic matter, while helping the matter decompose. an example of a detritivore would be a worm, as they eat decomposing matter and help make healthy and rich soil. A detritivore is an organism that feeds on decaying material, and takes it in to digest it (like humans do).

Disc Herniations in the Lumbar Spine: Frequently Asked Questions Second, the term “disc herniations” is very broad. “Herniation” is a good – if broad – term to describe a change in the disc. In many ways, it is as generic as saying you drive “a car”. But that car can be a compact car, a sedan, a station wagon, or a large SUV.econd, the term “disc herniations” is very broad. “Herniation” is a good – if broad – term to describe a change in the disc.

Introduction to Fungi Fungi are heterotrophs and, like animals, obtain their carbon and energy from other organisms. Some fungi obtain their nutrients from a living host (plant or animal) and are called biotrophs; others obtain their nutrients from dead plants or animals and are called saprotrophs (saprophytes, saprobes).ungi are heterotrophs and, like animals, obtain their carbon and energy from other organisms.

Level OneâPrimary Consumers Level One—Primary Consumers. This level is made up of herbivores: bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, nematodes, mites, snails, slugs, earthworms, millipedes, sowbugs and worms. Note that some types of mites are carnivores. The most productive members of your compost pile's food web are the bacteria, which are chemical decomposers.

- It is also converted into fungi and bacteria through these organisms feeding on the organic material and reproducing. Scientists call the organisms that decompose organic matter decomposers, saprobes or saprotrophs. Decomposition is made up of a number of subprocesses. Consider the decomposition of leaves.Earthworms and other soil animals break the leaves into smaller pieces in a process called fragmentation.he surface of the ground would also be buried by dead leaves and wood lying forever where they fell. Fungi and bacteria are the major organisms decomposing dead leaves and other organic matter. Here, we do not use the word organic in the same way it is used by the food industry.

- Saprobic fungi are decomposers, or recyclers, that live on dead organic material from plants, animals, and other fungi. They can be generalists, growing on a wide variety of substrates (food sources) or specialists, e.g., the mushroom Strobilurus conigenoides is found only on magnolia fruits.Parasitic fungi use living organisms as a food source, causing some diseases of plants and animals, including Dutch elm disease and ringworm.There are even fungi that attack other fungi, e.g., Hypomyces. Mycorrhizal fungi form beneficial partnerships with plants.ungi and animals digest other organisms to obtain energy and other nutrients. Animals typically eat' food and digest it internally. Fungi have external digestion! They literally grow through their food secreting enzymes outside of their cells and absorbing the breakdown products.

- Lacking teeth, earthworms depend upon food that really can't be seen by the naked human eye, such as protozoans, nematodes, rotifers, bacteria and fungi in the soil. And even though it sounds gross, earthworms will find nutrients on decomposing animals they come across on their travels.

Decomposers and food chains Organic matter is recycled in an ecosystem by decomposers. Decomposers are organisms such as bacteria and fungi that break down the organic matter in the dead bodies of plants and animals.As the decomposers feed from the dead animals, they break down the organic compounds into simple nutrients.here are more than 100 000 different types of decomposer organisms. Bacteria and fungi produce chemicals, called enzymes that digest dead material. The digested material then provides a food source for other organisms in the soil.

The Science of Composting They are considered chemical decomposers, because they change the chemistry of organic wastes. The larger decomposers, or macroorganisms, in a compost pile include mites, centipedes, sow bugs, snails, millipedes, springtails, spiders, slugs, beetles, ants, flies, nematodes, flatworms, rotifers, and earthworms.acteria utilize carbon as a source of energy (to keep on eating) and nitrogen to build protein in their bodies (so they can grow and reproduce). They obtain energy by oxidizing organic material, especially the carbon fraction. This oxidation process heats up the compost pile from ambient air temperature.

- A: Some decomposers in the ocean include fungi in the genera Lindra and Lulworthia, the bacteria Vibrio furnissii, shipworms, nematodes and amoebas. Decomposers are an important component of the marine ecosystem, as they break down dead organisms and release nutrients from these organisms back into ocean.

Termites Termites are detritivores, or detritus feeders. They feed on dead plants and trees. Termites get nutrients from cellulose, an organic fiber found in wood and plant matter. Wood makes up the majority of the pests’ diet, although termites also eat other materials such as paper, plastic, and drywall.

- Producers and Consumers A producer is a living thing that makes its own food from sunlight, air, and soil. Green plants are producers who make food in their leaves. A consumer is a living thing that cannot make its own food. Consumers get their energy by eating food. All animals are consumers. A decomposer is a living thing that gets energy by breaking down dead plants and animals. Fungi and bacteria are the most common decomposers. Tell whether each living thing below is a producer, consumer, or decomposer. a. apple tree - producer b. hawk - consumer c. mushroom - decomposer d. carrot - producer e. dragonfly - consumer f. bamboo - producer g.

ROLE OF DECOMPOSERS Decomposers such as bacteria and fungi cause decay at a microscopic level. Other larger organisms, called detritivores detritivore: An organism that feeds on dead organisms and waste eg earthworm.ungi are often larger organisms that include moulds and mushrooms. They both cause decay by releasing enzymes [enzyme: A protein which speeds up chemical reactions. ] onto the dead animal or plant. These break down complex compounds into simple soluble ones that can be absorbed by decomposers.

Autotroph Other organisms, called heterotrophs, take in autotrophs as food to carry out functions necessary for their life. Thus, heterotrophs — all animals, almost all fungi, as well as most bacteria and protozoa — depend on autotrophs, or primary producers, for the energy and raw materials they need.Heterotrophs obtain energy by breaking down organic molecules (carbohydrates, fats, and proteins) obtained in food.utotrophs can reduce carbon dioxide to make organic compounds for biosynthesis and also create a store of chemical energy. Most autotrophs use water as the reducing agent, but some can use other hydrogen compounds such as hydrogen sulfide.
