What else can I help you with?
What is the forth word of the food chain?
Primary and Secondary consumers.
What type of consumer are coyotes?
A coyote is a second order consumer because it eats first order consumers such as rabbits.
Is a carnivore a first order consumer?
Yes, a carnivore is considered a second-order consumer because it feeds on primary consumers (herbivores) that are the first-order consumers in a food chain or food web.
The food chain that includes insect- eating birds is?
econdary consumers
What is higher order consumer?
organisms at the top of the food chain. These consumers don't have any predators.
Humans are both first order and fourth order consumers depending on the food chain described true or false?
true!! :) -breebree.<3
What are both first and second order consumers in Antarctic waters?
The food chain in Antarctica is very short and only exists within the marine environment. The continent is too cold to support any kind of food chain. The lowest -- first order -- consumer is krill. Second order consumers include whales, penguins, and more.
What is the order in an Andes mountain food chain?
In an Andes mountain food chain, the order typically starts with producers, such as various grasses and shrubs that thrive in high-altitude environments. These plants are then consumed by primary consumers, like herbivores such as llamas or deer. Secondary consumers, like mountain lions or condors, prey on these herbivores. Finally, decomposers, including fungi and bacteria, break down organic matter, returning nutrients to the soil and completing the cycle.
Why is there always more producers than consumers in a food chain?
because plants under go photosynthesis and make there own food to reproduce and create more producers. while consumers which are not plants and don't under go photosynthesis they are more liable to die out.
Who receives the energy stored in first order consumers?
First-order consumers, or primary consumers, are typically herbivores that feed directly on producers (plants). The energy stored in these first-order consumers is primarily transferred to secondary consumers, which are carnivores or omnivores that eat herbivores. This transfer of energy occurs through the food chain, where each level of consumers relies on the energy stored in the organisms they consume. Additionally, some of the energy can be lost as heat or used for the organism's metabolic processes.
How does the energy from the sun reach the third order of consumer?
Energy from the sun reaches the third order of consumers through a series of trophic levels in an ecosystem. First, plants (producers) capture sunlight through photosynthesis, converting it into chemical energy. Herbivores (first order consumers) then consume the plants, obtaining energy, followed by carnivores (second order consumers) that eat the herbivores. Finally, third order consumers, which are typically larger carnivores, obtain energy by preying on the second order consumers, continuing the flow of energy through the food chain.
Is a second order consumer a carnivore?
Yes, a second order consumer is typically a carnivore. Second order consumers feed on herbivores, which in turn feed on plants. This places them higher in the food chain and indicates that they primarily consume animal matter.
