The rest of the dead body left after consumers feed is

  1. Disappeared
  2. Decomposed  
  3. Reacted
  4. Spread

hintHint:

In the last stage of the food chain, all the organic material is converted and sent back to the soil.

The correct answer is: Decomposed


    • The rest of the dead body is left after consumers' feed is decomposed. 
    • Decomposition is the process by which complex organic material is broken down into simpler inorganic material with the help of microorganisms. 
    • During this process, when the organism dies, its body is surrounded by various microorganisms which break down these complex substances and decompose the body. 

    The decomposition process helps to return the organic material to the soil by converting it into inorganic material which is used as nutrients by the plants.
