In an estuary, common decomposers include bacteria, fungi, and detritivores such as worms and certain types of crustaceans. These organisms play a crucial role in breaking down organic material, recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem. By decomposing dead plants, animals, and other organic matter, they help maintain the health and productivity of the estuarine environment. This process supports a diverse range of species that depend on the nutrient-rich waters of estuaries.
