trophic levels primary producers-make their own food
primary consumers-eats primary producers
secondary consumer-eats primary consumers
tertiary consumer-eats secondary consumers
Quaternary consumer-eats tertiary consumers
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

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. -Gallo :)
That's where an organism fits in the food chain. Like, a Hawk will eat a snake; a snake will eat a mouse; a mouse will eat a grasshopper; a grasshopper eats plants. The hawk is at the top of the trophic level pyramid in this example.

Organisms in the second trophic level that eat only plants are herbivores. These organisms derive their energy by consuming producers, such as grasses or leaves. Examples of herbivores include rabbits, deer, and grasshoppers.

About 10% of energy is transferred from the lowest to the second. Another 10% is transferred to the third. There is not enough for a fourth level in most cases it but could be so if the first level is very rich.
no
Secondary consumers belong on the 2nd level trophic level yah!
