Let’s go through each living thing one by one and decide if it’s a producer, consumer, or decomposer.

Remember:
- Producers make their own energy (like plants using sunlight).
- Consumers eat other living things to get energy.
- Decomposers break down dead stuff and recycle nutrients.

---

1. Grass → Makes its own food from sunlight → Producer

2. Elephant → Eats plants (grass, leaves) → Gets energy from others → Consumer

3. Bacteria → Many types break down dead things → Usually Decomposer (in this context)

4. Tiger → Eats animals like deer → Gets energy from others → Consumer

5. Acacia tree → A plant that makes its own food → Producer

6. Earthworm → Eats dirt and decaying matter → Breaks down dead stuff → Decomposer

7. Mushroom → Fungus that grows on dead wood/leaves → Breaks down dead material → Decomposer

8. Blackberry plant → Plant that makes its own food → Producer

9. Grizzly bear → Eats fish, berries, meat → Gets energy from others → Consumer
