Fungi
The kingdom of organisms that absorb nutrients from dead matter, like mushrooms or molds
Real World Example
Imagine dealing with the clutter in your house, where every corner seems to accumulate piles of old, unused items. Just like how you need to sort through and manage this clutter to maintain a functional living space, fungi play a crucial role in ecosystems by breaking down dead matter, such as fallen leaves and decaying wood. In this analogy, the clutter represents dead organic material, your efforts to clean and organize symbolize the fungi's role in decomposing and recycling nutrients, and the resulting tidy space parallels the rejuvenated environment that benefits from fungi's nutrient absorption.
