in each trophic level organisms eat another organism to gain it's energy
spider
As it can photosynthesize and eat like animals .SO its both hetero tropic and auto tropic.
Decomposer
No, because even though humans are placed on a lower tropic level than lions, sharks, wolves, etc. they still eat organisms like those. Humans eat shark and other meat from organisms higher than them on the tropic level pyramid.
A fly is an organism. It is made up of multiple organ systems working together.
why does an organisms eat another organisms
With the increase of the tropic level, there is a loss of energy. It is averaged that each organism consumes 10% of the energy from the organism that it eats. Because of this loss of energy, the animals at the higher tropic levels eat more, and hence, eat more toxins. The toxins accumulate in the fat of the animals, and just continue to increase.
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

they eat stuff such as fruit mainly
A bighorn sheep is a pomary consumer because they eat the producers. Primary consumers are herbivores that eat the first tropic level vegetation. Plants are the first tropic level producers.

why does an organisms eat another organisms
when the organisms eat each other they transfer energy, each time one organism eats another, 10% of it's ( the eaten organism ) energy is tranfered to the eater.
