Answer:

The correct answer would be "They release the carbon that remains in the bodies of dead organisms".

Decomposers are heterotrophic organisms which get their nutrition by breaking down remains of dead plants and animals. The process of breaking down the dead remains of plants and animals is termed as decomposition.

By doing so, they play an important role in an ecosystem. They help in recycling of the nutrients such as carbon and nitrogen in an ecosystem. They return these nutrients to the soil from where plants can reuse the same.

In addition, they help in removing or cleaning the dead matter and waste material from the ecosystem.

Explanation:

If the moose species developed larger feet, then the cause of it has to be for their survival. So the ecosystem they lived in had to make it so the larger feet were helpful. That crosses out 1 and 3. The problem said nothing about the moose having smaller feet so, the answer has to be 2.
