What is the function of the enzyme-substrate complex ​
kifflom [539]
When an enzyme binds its substrate, it forms an enzyme-substrate complex. This complex lowers the activation energy of the reaction and promotes its rapid progression by providing certain ions or chemical groups that actually form covalent bonds with molecules as a necessary step of the reaction process.

Why are detritivores, decomposers and omnivores not assigned trophic levels
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The reason is because detritivores and decomposers and omnivores are multilevel food chain consumers in an ecosystem making them not qualified to be assigned to a given trophic level

Explanation:

An organism is placed in a trophic level based the level it is from where the food chain starts with the start of the food chain having a level of 1 for the food producers such including plants and algae

Level 2 organisms are called primary consumers and consists of organism that eat only plants known as herbivores such as cattle

Level 3 organisms are called secondary consumers and consists of animal eating organism known as carnivores such as foxes  etc.  

Level 4 organisms are called tertiary consumers  

Level 5 organisms are the a p e x p r e d a t o r s

Detritivores and decomposers such as bacteria, earthworm flies fungi consume the wastes produced at all trophic levels, therefore they cannot be assigned to a particular trophic level

Similarly, omnivores consumes both plants at level 2 and animals at level 3 making it ambiguous to assign them to one particular trophic level.
