Primary consumers receive their energy from producers (i.e. plants) canrnivores receive their energy from other consumers.
The sun is not considered to be a primary consumer. The sun is an energy source that is used by primary consumers.
A primary consumer is an organism that consumes producers (typically plants) directly. It does not consume any other consumers.Terms of the food chain:producer-a living creature that makes food and energy by itself through a process called photosynthesis.primary consumer - a consumer that gets energy from eating plants; typically a herbivoresecondary consumer - a consumer that gets energy from eating primary consumers; a carnivoretertiary consumer - a high level consumer, which is usually the top predator in the ecosystem and/or food chain.Producers are formally called autotrophs, while consumers are known as heterotrophs.
They are called primary producers because they are autotropic i.e they receive energy directly 4rm d primary source;sunlight(the highest amount of energy through the food chain) with the aid of chlorophyll,d green pigment cointained in their chloroplast,to produce glucose/carbohydrates for other organism to feed on.

The energy role of heron is a primary consumer.
The primary motive of consumer behavior is to gain energy for locomotion. The secondary motive is energy for building new cells.
