Explain how animals dwelling in the forest help it grow and regenerate.
The animals in forests include herbivores, carnivores, fungi, bacteria, etc. These play an important role in maintaining the food chains.
1. Micro-organisms convert the dead plants and animals to humus. This humus helps in returning the nutrients back to the soil. These are absorbed by plants.
2. Animals which are dwelling in the forest can move or disappear the seeds of various plans and therefore the animal dung acts as a manure can help in growing these seeds to plant.
3. The decaying animal dung provides nutrients to various types of seedlings to grow.
