Antelopes are herbivores, meaning they prey on plants, which are producers. Therefore, antelopes would be considered a primary consumer.
Antelopes eat grass so they are primary consumers
Humans, wolves, mountain lions to name but a few.
Cheetahs are not decomposers. They are carnivores who primarily feed on herbivores. This makes them secondary consumers, who feed on primary consumers.
Yes, they are consumers. Consumers are animals that can't make their own food.
consumer
antelopes are prey. lions hunt them :)
secondary consumers
Yes, lions are considered quaternary consumers in their ecosystems. As apex predators, they are at the top of the food chain and primarily feed on herbivores, such as zebras and antelopes, which are secondary consumers themselves. By preying on these animals, lions play a crucial role in maintaining the balance of their habitats.
The antelope food chain typically starts with grasses and other vegetation, which serve as primary producers. Antelopes, as herbivores, are primary consumers that feed on these plants. Predators like lions and hyenas are secondary consumers that prey on antelopes. Decomposers, such as fungi and bacteria, break down organic matter from deceased animals and plants, returning nutrients to the soil and completing the cycle.
I like antelopes fine.
no an antelopes do no eat hyenas :-(
The food chain for a lion typically consists of grass as a producer, which is eaten by zebras or antelopes as primary consumers. Lions then prey on these herbivores as secondary consumers, maintaining a balance in the ecosystem.
