mikrobikuluttajat

Mikrobikuluttajat, also known as microbial grazers, are organisms that feed on microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi. These grazers play a crucial role in various ecosystems, including soil, aquatic environments, and even the human gut. They help in the decomposition of organic matter, nutrient cycling, and maintaining the balance of microbial communities. Examples of mikrobikuluttajat include protozoa, certain bacteria, and some fungi. Their activities contribute to the overall health and functioning of ecosystems by breaking down complex organic materials into simpler forms that can be reused by other organisms.
