What is an example of a decomposer?

  1. Butterfly

  2. Worm

  3. Snake

  4. Hawk

The correct answer is: Worm

A decomposer is an organism that breaks down dead or decaying organisms and returns nutrients to the soil for other living organisms to use. While options A, C, and D are all examples of living organisms, none of them are decomposers as they do not contribute to the decomposition process. Only worms, like earthworms, are known for their ability to break down organic matter and play an important role in maintaining a healthy ecosystem. Therefore, option B is the most correct answer as it fits the definition of a decomposer.
