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.

Describe and the explain the changes in blood lactic acid and concentration shown in the graph || guys someone please help i’m f
7nadin3 [17]
During the exercise period (10-15min) the blood lactic acid concentration increases to about 13.2 mmol/dL (same units as on graph) as the individual is having problems keeping up their aerobic respiration. After 15min, they stop exercising and the lactic acid concentration starts to return to normal as their body is able to take in enough oxygen and catches up with the excess lactic acid, metabolizing it into CO2 and H2O. The period between 15-20 min shows the fastest reduction in concentration.
