Humans, wolves, mountain lions to name but a few.
Antelopes are herbivores, meaning they prey on plants, which are producers. Therefore, antelopes would be considered a primary consumer.
The primary consumers on Everest are predators.
Antelopes eat grass so they are primary consumers
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.
consumer
Yes, they are consumers. Consumers are animals that can't make their own food.
Wolves are alpha predators; they are primary consumers.
Producers, followed by primary consumers, then secondary consumers, then by predators
true because secondary consumers eat plant eaters which are the predators.
In a savannah ecosystem, primary consumers include herbivores that graze on grasses and plants. Common examples are zebras, antelopes, and giraffes, which feed on the abundant vegetation. These animals play a crucial role in the food web, serving as a food source for higher-level predators. Their grazing also helps maintain the grassland habitat by preventing overgrowth.
Cheetahs are not decomposers. They are carnivores who primarily feed on herbivores. This makes them secondary consumers, who feed on primary consumers.
Mackerel are classified as primary consumers because they primarily feed on smaller fish, plankton, and other marine organisms. As predators, they occupy a significant position in the food chain, preying on these smaller species. However, they are not at the top of the food chain, as larger predators, such as sharks and larger fish, prey on them. Thus, mackerel are considered secondary consumers rather than primary consumers.
