Answer:
carbon dioxide
Explanation:
when animal dies their bodies get decayed by the actions of natural recyclers called decomposers e.g bacteria, worms, slugs. most of the carbon they consumed while still alive is exhaled as carbon dioxide, and when the animal eventually dies the natural recyclers called decomposers returns the carbon in their body back to the atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide.
so therefore , when dead animals break down carbondioxide is released into the atmosphere.
