There would be dead animals overloading the Earth. Think about it, without worms and other things that break down dead things they would still be here and just sit there.

If there were no decomposers in the food web, the whole entire food web would be destroyed in a sense. Decomposers break down animals remains and turn this into nutrients which is then used by plants. Plants grow and provide energy to herbivores, herbivores/mammals provide energy to carnivores, and then fecal/animal carcasses(remains) supply the decomposers with something to decompose. Without decomposers, there would be no food web. Hope this helps!

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

1. Liver

2. Liver and Kidneys

3. Mitochondria

4. Lumen of the small intestines

5. Liver

Explanation:

1. Glucose is phosphorylated into glucose-6-phosphate which is the first step of both glycogen synthesis and glycolysis, this process occurs in the liver

2.   Glucose 6-phosphate is a product of a process named gluconeogenesis which occurs in the liver it serves as a substrate for glucose-6-phosphatase in the liver.

3. Creatinine kinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the phosphorylation of creatine. In regeneration process of ATP, creatine phosphate transfers a high-energy phosphate to ADP which produces ATP and creatine

4. Initially lipase digestion lipase digestion happens in the small intestine where the bile salts reduce the surface tension of the fat droplets allowing the lipases to attack the triglyceride molecules. These molecules are taken up into the epithelial cells that line the intestinal wall, where they are resynthesized into triglyceride

5. The job of the liver is to produce ketone bodies. If the liver had this enzyme, the ketone bodies it produces would be immediately broken down by the liver before they are released, thereofore, no release of ketone bodies into the bloodstream
