Newts are not primary consumers; they are classified as secondary consumers in the food chain. They primarily feed on insects, worms, and other small invertebrates, which places them higher up in the trophic levels. Primary consumers are typically herbivores that feed on plants, while newts, being carnivorous, play a role in controlling the populations of their prey.

Newts are carnivorous amphibians that primarily feed on insects, worms, and small aquatic creatures, making them secondary or tertiary consumers in the food chain.

Primary consumers eat primary producers(plant-eaters). Secondary consumers eat primary consumers (meat-eaters) Tertiary consumers eat secondary consumers. Quaternary consumers eat tertiary consumers.
Rats are primary consumers. This means they will eat almost everything. In the wild, primary consumers provide nutrition for secondary consumers.
Primary consumers are herbivores that eat plants directly. Secondary consumers are carnivores that eat primary consumers. Tertiary consumers are carnivores that eat secondary consumers.
primary consumers are herbivores and secondary consumers are carnivores so secondary consumers eat primary consumers
