They break down rotting materials and return nutrients to the soil.
( They don't do photosynthesis since they are much different from plants)
Answer: See attached explanations
Answer:
The final temperature of the water is 22.44°C.
Explanation:
Heat lost by tin will be equal to heat gained by the water

Mass of tin = 
Specific heat capacity of tin = 
Initial temperature of the tin = 
Final temperature =
=T

Mass of water= 
Specific heat capacity of water= 
Initial temperature of the water = 
Final temperature of water =
=T

(Law of Conservation of energy)

On substituting all values:

we get, T = 22.44°C
The final temperature of the water is 22.44°C.
