This "A" can't be crtt abeg go check textbook saprophytes feed on Dead And Decaying matters and i dont think if insoluble matters like plastic are biodegradable in a way that saprophytes can feed on them

Liam Wills

C is the right answer

John Oyekanmi

A Shouldn't be the Answer as Saprophytes Only Feed on "SOLUBLE ORGANIC MATTER" and not Insoluble Organic Matter. I suggest that the CORRECT ANSWER is C. Why?

Well, Saprophytic Nutrition entails Feeding on Dead and Decaying Organic Matter and also this process also helps to Break Down Organic Matter which into Simpler and Smaller Substances that can be taken up and RECYCLED by Plants. Therefore, they play a key Role in the Recycling of Nutrients or as proposed, "they make the Recycling of Nutrients possible".

Saprophtism is the mode of nutrition in which certain organisms called SAPROPHYTES feed on dead or decaying organic matter.
