Explanation:

Virus is an infectious agent that has the ability to reproduce inside its host cell.Once inside a host cell,it has the ability to replicate itself. It is composed of a core of genetic material, either DNA or RNA. It is surrounded by a protein coat or protein envelope(that covers genome), which is a protective layer that enables the virus to survive between hosts. Virus is the smallest of all microbes. A typical virus may vary in size. The smallest being only 17nm and the largest is 1500nm in size.

from my research i have to the conclusion that decomposers, such as fungi, bacteria and invertebrates, play a critical role in nutrient cycling and without them the earth's ecosystem may not support life as we know it. elements such as carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus exist in limited amounts on earth, although huge amounts of carbon are being released into the atmosphere from underground sources now by humans. it is still extremely important that other nutrients be retained by the process of re-use. decomposers are organisms that are able to chemically break down dead material and make these elements available for use by other organisms. without this breakdown of dead material, dead bodies would pile up. so decomposers also play a role in clean up also. without them, life might not continue as we know it and dead material would overwhelm the earth.
