exists and is an alternate of . Decomposers are orgamisms (Usually bacteria, fungi or worms) that consume and break down dead and decaying organisms and wastes of other organisms. Decomposers are also usually considered to be heterotrophic meaning that they use other organic substance in order to obtain energy. a decomposer is an amimal who eats the dead.
