The group of organisms that occupy the second trophic level of an ecosystem is the herbivores. The herbivores eat the plants in the first trophic level and are then called primary consumers.

∙ 14y agothe first trophic level is the producer aka the plant.
the second trophic level is the first order consumer or the primary consumer. they are herbivores.

What feeding level is an amoeba on?
2nd trophic level; herbavoir
Can a first level consumer eat a second level consumer?
1st level consumers are any heterotrophs (animals that do not harvest food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis) that eat producers (plants, bacteria, things that make their own food). 2nd level consumers are carnivores or omnivores that eat 1st level consumers, and the 3rd eats 2nd, and so on and so forth. Well a 3rd level consumer is a decomposer second is a carnivore first is a herbivore
What is flow of energy in ecosystem?
Energy flows from one trophic level to the next (Producer->Primary Consumer->Secondary Consumer). Energy transfer becomes less efficient as it's being transferred; seeing as it is partly used by the organism for metabolic processes.
Why do most food chains do not extend beyond the 4 th trophic level?
The amount of energy transferred from each trophic level to the next is around 10%. This is a tiny amount. By the 4th level, there is so little energy available that it is not possible (in most cases) to support a 5th level. Generally, where a 5th level exists, the organism isn't on the 5th level for every chain it is included in. Example: Primary producer (1st level) :100 Joules Primary consumer (2nd level) : 10 J Secondary consumer (3rd level) : 1 J Tertiary consumer (4th level) : 0.1 J
What is a 2nd level consumer?
2nd level consumer is a consumer that is an omnivore or a carnivore that eats the 1st level consumers
What is the trophic level for elephants?
It is the 2nd consumer on the trophic level! :)
What level do secondary consumers belong to on a trophic pyramid?
Secondary consumers belong on the 2nd level trophic level yah!
What feeding level is an amoeba on?
2nd trophic level; herbavoir
What do the organisms in each level eat?
1st trophic level=flowers,trees,grass & algae. 2nd trophic level=caterpillars,cow,grasshoppers & bettes. 3rd trophic level=humans,birds & frogs 4th trophic level=lions,dogs and snakes
What do organisms in each level eat?
1st trophic level=flowers,trees,grass & algae. 2nd trophic level=caterpillars,cow,grasshoppers & bettes. 3rd trophic level=humans,birds & frogs 4th trophic level=lions,dogs and snakes
What do the organisms in eat tropic level eat?
1st trophic level=flowers,trees,grass & algae. 2nd trophic level=caterpillars,cow,grasshoppers & bettes. 3rd trophic level=humans,birds & frogs 4th trophic level=lions,dogs and snakes
What do the organism in each tropic level eat?
1st trophic level=flowers,trees,grass & algae. 2nd trophic level=caterpillars,cow,grasshoppers & bettes. 3rd trophic level=humans,birds & frogs 4th trophic level=lions,dogs and snakes
What do organisms in each tropical level eat?
1st trophic level=flowers,trees,grass & algae. 2nd trophic level=caterpillars,cow,grasshoppers & bettes. 3rd trophic level=humans,birds & frogs 4th trophic level=lions,dogs and snakes
What 2nd trohphic level animal eats a flower?
Animals at the second trophic level that eat flowers are the herbivores. These animals eat both plants and flowers of different plant types.
Tiger trophic level?
According to the list below, tigers would be a trophic level 4 or Top Level Carnivore. Trophic levels are:1st/bottom level) Producers: Organisms that produce their own food such as plants.2nd level) Consumers: These are animals that are herbivores, they eat plants and no meat.3rd level) Secondary Consumers: These are primary carnivores and only eat meat.4th/top level) Tertiary Consumers: These are the creatures at the top of the food chain because they have no predators.
What is a 3RD level consumer?
An animal that eats 2nd level consumers. the 3rd level consumers are animals that mostly eat 2nd level consumers.
Can a first level consumer eat a second level consumer?
1st level consumers are any heterotrophs (animals that do not harvest food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis) that eat producers (plants, bacteria, things that make their own food). 2nd level consumers are carnivores or omnivores that eat 1st level consumers, and the 3rd eats 2nd, and so on and so forth. Well a 3rd level consumer is a decomposer second is a carnivore first is a herbivore
