Animals that eat decomposing organic material, such as dung beetles, make the material available to what organisms that break it down further?

  • Correct Answer: bacteria
  • protozoa
  • consumers

Explanation: Animals that eat decomposing organic material also have an important interaction with the environment. They help to decompose dead matter and assist with the recycling of nutrients. By burying and eating dung, dung beetles, such as the one shown in Figure below , improve nutrient cycling and soil structure. They make the dead organic matter available to bacteria that break it down even further.
