What is the most important herbivore in Antarctica?
There are no herbivores or carnivores or omnivores that live on the Antarctic continent: it's too cold and there is no food chain.
How does herbivores fit in the food chain?
They eat the primary and become the source of food for carnivores and omnivores animals
What is the food chain in a rainforests?
It is plants then plant eaters then meat eaters. (technically: procucer then herbivores/omnivores then carnivores then detrivores)
Why are decomposes important to living things?
Decomposers break down wastes of animals and plants(dead leaves and roots) into fertile topsoil with lots of humus. plants grow better in that soil and the herbivores and omnivores eat the plants. and the carnivores and some omnivores eat those herbivores. Its basically the food chain.
What would happen to the food chain if there was no rain at all?
Carnivores eat herbivores, but they also eat omnivores, which is another category that combines the herbivore and the carnivore. Certainly there would be much less food available to carnivores if all the herbivores were gone, and the number of carnivores would decrease, but as long as there are still omnivores, then there is the opportunity for some carnivores to continue to exist. For example, we human beings are omnivores, and even if all the herbivores were to disappear, we would find a way to continue to feed our pet dogs and cats, which are carnivores. Pigs are also omnivores, so presumably we would still have them as farm animals and food sources.
Are there more herbivores or carnivores in the Serengeti?
Should be herbivores since carnivores are higher in the food chain.
Why are decomposers important to other living things?
Decomposers break down wastes of animals and plants(dead leaves and roots) into fertile topsoil with lots of humus. plants grow better in that soil and the herbivores and omnivores eat the plants. and the carnivores and some omnivores eat those herbivores. Its basically the food chain.
Why is there no food chain without herbivores and carnivores?
herbivores dont matter. without carnivores no animals would be eaten
Do ecosystems always contain producers?
yes because if the producers are not there in the environment then the whole chain will get disturb so some herbivores and omnivores will not get food also.so,then how carnivores can live so that's why importance of producers are very important in our ecosystem
Does the decomposer come after the carnivore in the food web?
Yes,in a food chain or a web first come the plants which are the producers, then herbivores then carnivores or omnivores who all are consumers and then at the end we have the decomposers .
