Questions Related to interdependence between plants and animals
The organisms, which attack dead animals are
-
First link of the food chain are known as primary producers
-
Second link of the food chain are known as herbivores
-
Third link of the food chain are known as tertiary consumers
-
Present at the end of food chain are detritivores
The organisms which attack dead animals and obtain nutrition from their detritus (decomposing parts of plant and animals, even feces) are called as detritivores (kind of heterotrophs). They are present at the end of the food chain because they consume the highest trophic level organisms by their biomacromolecular digesting enzymes. Therefore, concluding the food chains often.
Which of the following is an example of transformer:-
-
Grass
-
Cow
-
Fungi
-
Lion
In biology, transformers are the organisms that transform or convert one form of food into another. These organisms are comonly refrred to as decomposers. They convert dead organic matter into simpler inorganic molecules. Such animals include fungi, some bacteria, etc.
Efficient recycling of nutrients from dead bodies into living things is done by?
-
Producers
-
Consumers
-
Decomposers
-
Predators
- Decomposer are feed on the decaying organic matter and convert this matter into nitrogen and carbon dioxide.
- Decomposers are the fungi and bacteria, which are the saprophytes.
- The saprophytes play a vital role in recycling the nutrients so that the producers i.e. plants can use them once again.
Which of the following can convert organic substance into inorganic substance?
-
Producers
-
Decomposers
-
Primary consumers
-
Secondary consumers
- Decomposers are organisms that break down the dead organic matter into carbon dioxide, water, minerals and other simple chemicals called inorganic substances.
- These inorganic substances are utilized by green plants.
- Leaf litter, dead wood, animal carcasses and faeces are the organic matter present in the soil.
- So, the correct answer is 'Decomposers'.
The breakdown of dead and decaying organisms is carried out by
-
Decomposers
-
Humans
-
Insects
-
Rodents
Decomposers are organisms that break down dead or decaying organisms, and in doing so they carry out the natural process of decomposition. Like herbivores and predators, decomposers are heterotrophic, meaning that they use organic substrates to get their energy, carbon and nutrients for growth and development.
Fungi and bacteria are examples of
-
Producers
-
Decomposers
-
Consumers
-
Omnivores
Which of the following helps in maintaining the supply of nutrients to the growing plants?
-
Herbivores
-
Carnivores
-
Decomposers
-
Omnivores
The food chain is comprised of different species which depend on each other for energy. The producers are which can prepare the food. The consumers feed on the producers. The dead plants and animals are degraded due to the microbial activity of the decomposers. The decomposers include the microbes which are involved in the breaking down of the organic complexes and recycling of the nutrients. They help in maintaining the continuous supply of the nutrients for the producers.
Decomposers are otherwise called as
-
Detritivores
-
Primary consumers
-
Organic matter
-
Secondary consumers
Which of the following are nature's cleaners?
-
Producers
-
Consumers
-
Symbionts
-
Decomposers and scavengers
Scavengers are organisms, that consume remains of other dead organisms or their waste products. The scavenger's role in the ecosystem is to prepare bodies for decomposition. They open up the bodies so that others can share the food. Scavengers include large animals. For example, crow and vulture. Many large carnivores, such as hyena and lion, which hunt regularly, will scavenge if given a chance.
Which one of the following is genetically improved bacteria for pollution control.
-
Pseudomonas
-
Rhlzobium
-
N!trobacter
-
Nttrosomonas
