Answer:  a. to decompose dead animals

Explanation:

Detritivores are the hetrotrophic organisms which feed upon detritus (dead and decaying plant and animal matter). These detritivores break down the biological dead matter into simple molecules which are readily consumed by the small microorganisms present in the soil. Detritivores are essential for the ecosystem as they return important materials such as carbon and other essential elements back to the environment after decomposing the dead matter. Example of common detritivores includes earthworms.

On the basis of the above explanation, the role of a detritivore is a. to decompose dead animals.

What does sustainability mean? please give examples too
satela [25.4K]
Hi there!

Sustainability means that something or someone has the ability to keep something going. 

For example, a plant could have good life sustainability because it has a special poison, keeping predators away from it.

You could be self sustainable by growing your own crops, collecting your own water, and making things you need.

Hope this helps!
