The organism that does all the killing in predation?

An example of the organism you require would be a carnivore, omnivore and believe it or not, a herbivore. Plants are organisms too! So some of these are: Sheep Cows Humans Lions Tigers Pigs Every animal - every animal effectively 'kills' an organism (herbivores pull out plants, namely 'killing' them) does so to eat it (mainly). All foods come from either something that eats another organism or an organism itself, so when you eat something you are effectively 'killing' this organism. Hope this helps you.
