Correct answer: B) They produce most of the food that the ecosystem relies on

Decomposers are the organisms that break down the dead and decayed plants and animals. They also help in the breakdown of waste of other organism.

They are found to be very important for the ecosystem, if they were not present in the ecosystem them plant would not be able to get essential nutrients which are necessary for their growth. Because it the decomposers who help in the recycling of carbon and the nitrogen cycle.

Decomposers break down the dead and decayed material into simpler organic matter into carbon dioxide and nutrients.  

Example: bacteria, fungi
