Brother Roshan Wadhwani, let me make an addition (not a correction) to "Scavangers" here.
Environment is made of two components: living components and non-living components:
Living components include Producers, Consumers and Decomposers.
Scavengers and micro-organisms fall into the category of
decomposers which feed on dead plants and animals and break them down into smaller parts.
Your effort, anyway, is worthwhile. Keep it up!
