Small invertebrates are not typically considered producers; they are primarily consumers in the food chain. Producers are organisms that produce their own energy through processes like photosynthesis, such as plants and phytoplankton. Invertebrates, like insects and worms, usually feed on organic matter or other organisms, playing roles as herbivores, carnivores, or decomposers rather than producing energy directly.
Emperor angelfish are consumers. They are carnivorous and feed on small invertebrates and algae. They do not decompose organic matter or produce their own food through photosynthesis like producers do.
Lobsters are neither primary nor secondary producers; they are classified as consumers. Primary producers are organisms like plants and phytoplankton that produce their own food through photosynthesis, while secondary producers are organisms that consume primary producers. Lobsters are typically secondary consumers, as they feed on primary consumers like small fish and invertebrates.
Geckos are classified as secondary consumers. They primarily feed on insects and other small invertebrates, placing them in the food chain as predators that consume primary consumers (herbivores). As they rely on other organisms for food rather than producing their own energy, they do not qualify as producers or primary producers.
it eats a diet of small fruits and small invertebrates it eats a diet of small fruits and small invertebrates
the are consumers, they eat as they please. lol

Chickadees are typically considered to be primary consumers on the ecological pyramid. They primarily feed on seeds, insects, and other small invertebrates, placing them above producers like plants and below secondary consumers, such as small mammals or birds of prey. Their position reflects their role in transferring energy from producers to higher trophic levels in the food web.
Why are most invertebrates small in size? <good question> There are small because they have to be small, if they were the size of a human they would fall and sit there and die if they were small they are able to do more things they could not do......Simple

Aquatic invertebrates and small fish
Frogs are primarily consumers, as they feed on other organisms like insects and small invertebrates. They play a crucial role in their ecosystems by helping control pest populations. While they can be hosts for some parasites, they are not classified as parasites themselves.
