question 3(multiple choice worth 2 points) (04.01 mc) which of the following best describes the diet of a detritivore? blooming flowers decaying plant matter insects and bacteria bones and feathers question 4(multiple choice worth 2 points) (04.01 mc) how do decomposers convert energy for an ecosystem? they convert dead inorganic compounds to reusable organic compounds. they convert carbon dioxide, sunlight, and organic molecules to carbohydrates. they convert dead organic compounds to reusable organic compounds. they convert carbon dioxide, water, and organic molecules to carbohydrates.

Explanation:

Detritivores are organisms that feed on decaying organic material. Decomposers break down dead organic compounds into reusable organic compounds. Decaying plant matter is a common food - source for detritivores. And decomposers work on dead organic compounds, not inorganic ones. The process of converting carbon dioxide, sunlight, and organic molecules to carbohydrates is photosynthesis, not what decomposers do.

Answer:

Question 3: Decaying plant matter
Question 4: They convert dead organic compounds to reusable organic compounds
