The primary producer is a marine algae called phytoplankton. This algae floats around in the sunlit areas of the Ocean giving it its name: phyto=plant, plankton=floating. It is the source of food for many fishes and is responsible for most of the world's oxygen.
Yes, deer are considered primary consumers because they primarily feed on plants as their main source of energy. They play a crucial role in transferring energy from plants to higher trophic levels in the ecosystem.
e.g. ORGANISM BIOMASS Grass 1000 Herbivores 300 Small Carnivores 28 Large Carnivores 6 1) from producer to primary = (300/1000)x100 2) from primary to secondary = (28/300)x100 3) from secondary to carnivores = (6/28)x100 Hope this helps :)
A primary consumer obtains its energy from producers (i.e. plants). Therefore a rabbit is a primary consumer because it eats grass and other plants. A secondary consumer eats primary consumers, therefore they do not get their energy directly from plants.The fox that eats the rabbit would be a secondary consumer.
The neritic zone is the first 200 meters of ocean water, including most of the continental shelf. The primary consumers of the neritic zone are sea birds, herrings, mackerels, tunas and smaller species of fish.
A secondary consumer is a predator that eats the primary consumer in an ecosystem. Flow of energy in an ecosystem= primary producer>primary consumer>secondary consumer>teriary consumer
Crabs feed primarily off of detritus on the ocean floor. As such, they are scavengers and not herbivores, therefore they are not primary consumers.
whumpback whales and sharks
small fish, shrimp and Sheldon plankton
An example of a primary consume in the ocean is Your Mom
No! Carnivores are secondary consumers. Herbivores are primary consumers.
no
The primary consumers in the Arctic Ocean are phytoplankton and crustaceans that consume the zooplankton. Harp seals are secondary consumers, which mainly eat fish like Arctic cod and Arctic char, and some crustaceans. The top predators, or tertiary consumers, are polar bears and the Orca whale.
Primary consumers eat primary producers(plant-eaters). Secondary consumers eat primary consumers (meat-eaters) Tertiary consumers eat secondary consumers. Quaternary consumers eat tertiary consumers.
Rats are primary consumers. This means they will eat almost everything. In the wild, primary consumers provide nutrition for secondary consumers.
Primary consumers are herbivores that eat plants directly. Secondary consumers are carnivores that eat primary consumers. Tertiary consumers are carnivores that eat secondary consumers.
primary consumers are herbivores and secondary consumers are carnivores so secondary consumers eat primary consumers
The primary consumers on Everest are predators.
