Thus an ecosystem includes biotic factors like plants, animals and microorganisms, and abiotic factors like water, land and air.

Producers:They depends on other plants for their food requirements. Green plants are producers.

Scavenger:These dead animal eaters are called scavenger.e.g. hyena, vulture, etc.

Decomposers:The microorganisms which feed on the deed bodies of plants and animals decompose them into simpler substances are called Decomposers. e.g.bacteria and fungi.

Recycling of nutrients:The nutrients released from dead bodies by the action of scavenger and Decomposers, get mixed with the soil and are again absorbed by the plants. This process is called recycling of nutrients.

Consumers:Organisms which cannot produce their own food, need to eat other organisms as food. These organisms are called consumers. consumers are called heterotrophs.

Types of Consumers:-

1)Herbivores:Animals which eat plants or plant products. e.g.Cattle, deer,goat.

4)Abiotic Components and Biotic Components. Biotic factors or components are living components that shape the ecosystem and have an effect on the organisms within it. Thus an ecosystem includes biotic factors like plants, animals and microorganisms, and abiotic factors like water, land and air.

Producers:They depends on other plants for their food requirements. Green plants are producers.

Scavenger:These dead animal eaters are called scavenger.e.g. hyena, vulture, etc.

Decomposers:The microorganisms which feed on the deed bodies of plants and animals decompose them into simpler substances are called Decomposers. e.g.bacteria and fungi.

Recycling of nutrients:The nutrients released from dead bodies by the action of scavenger and Decomposers, get mixed with the soil and are again absorbed by the plants. This process is called recycling of nutrients.

Consumers:Organisms which cannot produce their own food, need to eat other organisms as food. These organisms are called consumers. consumers are called heterotrophs.

5)Consumers are also called heterotrophs because all animals are consumers as they cannot produce their own food.
