The 3 types of consumers are: primary consumer, secondary consumer, and tertiary consumer. A primary consumer, like a rabbit, eats a primary producer, like grass. A secondary consumer, like a fox, eats a primary consumer, which is the rabbit. A tertiary consumer, like a great gray owl, eats the secondary consumer, which is the fox.
A cat is not a primary consumer since it does not feed on plants which are producers. A cat is classified as a secondary consumer feeds on primary consumers.
this is easy the prairie dog eats the alfalfa and he hawk eats the praire dog
secondary consumer
A dog is a carnivorous mammal related to the wolf. While dogs typically live in mutualistic relationships with humans, when forced to hunt, they will do so in packs, and usually eat primary consumers /herbivores. This means that theoretically, a dog is a secondary consumer.
it means hot dog stand from erky and perky
Primary competitors within an industry are competitors that offer a nearly identical product or service. Secondary competitors offer a substitute good or service, which might be of a lower caliber but still related. ex: a guy with a hot dog stand would be a primary competitor to a guy down the street with a hot dog stand, but someone selling ice cream could be considered to be a secondary competitor.
It is a good idea to confirm your data with a secondary source.
Primary and secondary transfer can occur with both humans and animals. Primary transfer occurs when a person's or animal's hair is lost or shed directly on to a surface (clothing, furniture, a car) Secondary transfer occurs when shed hair is "picked up" from its primary deposition site and transported to another location. An example of this can be if a dog sheds hair onto a couch because he was sitting there (primary transfer) and then a person sits on the couch, gets the dog hair on his clothes and goes home. The hair he collected on his clothes is shed in his car on the way home (secondary transfer). The dog was never in the car, but because of secondary transfer, its fur will be. This can help establish movement throughout a house or prove a person was at a certain location during the commission of a crime for forensic trace examiners.
Yes a dog is a consumer because unlike plants, dogs can't produce their own food, they have to consume (eat) other matter just like humans. Therefore dogs are consumers.
Ferrets are Domestic pets and have no role in the food web. They totally rely on humans for survival.
At the beginning of the Tertiary period, mammals replaced reptiles as the dominant vertebrates. Each epoch of the Tertiary was marked by striking developments in mammalian life. The earliest recognizable hominoid relatives of humans, Proconsul and Australopithecus, also. Modern types of birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and invertebrates were either already numerous at the beginning of the period or appeared early in its history. Modern families of flowering plants evolved. Marine invertebrates and non-mammal marine vertebrates experienced only modest evolution.
