Question

What would happen to other organisms if prokaryotes did not recycle nutrients?

Answer 1

The organisms like prokaryotes acts as decomposers of the environment and and they recycle nutrients back into the soil.

These nutrients are taken back from the soil by the plants (Eukaryotes) and then from plants these nutrients are transferred to the other animals.

So, of the prokaryotes will not recycle the nutrients back into the soil, then it will not be available to the other organisms as food.
