Producer/scavenger
A scavenger is a consumer that we really call a decomposer since they break down food that is already dead.
it's a secondary consumer
Phytoplankton are producers and not scavengers as claimed.
A raccoon in terms of human perspective is a scavenger, so it would be loosely considered a consumer.
A producer is always at the beginning of a food chain. A producer will always be a plant. A primary consumer eats the producer. The secondary consumer eats the primary consumer. The scavenger comes next (if it gets there before the decomposer.) The decomposer will always be last. Example: (where there is a scavenger) grass --> rabbit --> fox --> vulture --> mushroom producer, primary consumer, secondary consumer, scavenger, decomposer
The coyote is usually a secondary consumer but also does eat some plants.
