The correct answer is **All of these**.
All the options listed—decomposer, consumer, and producer—represent different ecological roles within an ecosystem:
1. **Producers** (like plants and algae) create their own food through photosynthesis and are the foundation of the food web.
2. **Consumers** (like animals) feed on plants or other animals to obtain energy.
3. **Decomposers** (like fungi and bacteria) break down dead organic material, returning nutrients to the soil and completing the nutrient cycle.
Each plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance of the ecosystem.
