How does consumer's get its energy?
A consumer gets its energy in multiple ways.If the consumer is low on the food chain like a prairie dog it will get its energy from producers, such as grass that use photosynthesis.If the consumer is in the middle of the food chain like a hawk it would get its energy from eating the prairie dog and also gain the leftover energy from the grass the prairie dog ate.Last but not least is if the consumer is high up in the food chain like a coyote.The coyote will get its energy from eating the hawk which in turn will give it leftover energy from the prairie dog. It could also give some energy from the grass to the coyote but that's not very likely. So basically a consumer gets its energy by what it eats. I hope this helped:)
