it is a secondary
a rattle snake is a consumer
In the food web, three levels of consumers are primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers. Primary consumers are herbivores like grasshoppers. Secondary consumers are carnivores and consume primary consumers. An example of a secondary consumer that eats a grasshopper is a toad. Similarly, a snake, which is a tertiary consumer, will eat a secondary consumer like a toad.
Hawks can be either secondary or tertiary consumers, depending on the organism it eats at any particular time. If it eats an herbivore such as a mouse, then it is a secondary consumer. If it eats another carnivore such as a snake, then it is a tertiary consumer.
what is a quaternary consumer:The Quaternary consumer is the predator that eats the Tertiary consumer. This is an example of the order a food chain goes in:Grass - Grasshopper - Rat - Snake - Hawk - HumanGrass is the Producer and is eaten by the Primary consumer.Grasshopper is the Primary consumer and is eaten by the Secondary consumer.Rat is the Secondary consumer and is eaten by the Tertiary consumer.Snake is the Tertiary consumer and is eaten by the Quaternary consumer.Hawk is the Quaternary consumer and is the apex predator at the top of the food chain.
A Consumer is an animal that eats the Producer. The Producer is always a plant. There are 3 types of consumers:Primary Consumer, Secondary Consumer, and Tertiary Consumer. The Primary Consumer eats the Producer, the Secondary Consumer eats the Primary Consumer, and the Tertiary Consumer eats the Secondary Consumer. Example: Grass ------------> Rabit ------------> Snake ------------> Hawk (producer) (primary consumer) (secondary consumer) (tertiary consumer)
Snakes are secondary or tertiary consumers depending on the species.
producer = grass primary consumer = grasshopper, rabbit secondary consumer = mouse tertiary consumer = snake, kookaburra top predator = eagle
A jaguar is considered a secondary consumer in the rain forest. Another secondary consumer is the boa constrictor snake in the rain forest.
A rattlesnake is generally considered a secondary consumer, sometimes a tertiary.
A Snake is a Secondary Consumer
a rattle snake is a consumer
Snakes are secondary consumers. If you think this through, it will be pretty clear. A primary consumer is an animal that eats plants. Snakes don't eat plants, so they can't be primary consumers. Snakes are either secondary or tertiary consumers. Snakes eat the following animals: mice, varied small rodents, birds, worms, small fish, small lizards, and in some cases, large mammals. If the snake you are using as your example eats small mammals (probably the most common case) then think about what the small mammal eats. Probably nuts, grains, etc. Plant material. So the small mammal is a primary consumer and the snake eats the primary consumer, so that makes a snake a secondary consumer. If the snake you are using eats something that eats other animals (say your snake eats birds or lizards that eats insects) then the snake may be a secondary or tertiary consumer based on if it is eaten. If the snake is eaten by an animal, it is secondary, if not, it is tertiary. ANIMAL ==> PLANTS = primary consumer SNAKE ==> SMALL MAMMAL ==> PLANTS = secondary consumer SNAKE ==> BIRD/LIZARD ==> INSECTS ==> PLANTS = tertiary consumer
tertiary consumer
Tertiary Consumer
In the food web, three levels of consumers are primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers. Primary consumers are herbivores like grasshoppers. Secondary consumers are carnivores and consume primary consumers. An example of a secondary consumer that eats a grasshopper is a toad. Similarly, a snake, which is a tertiary consumer, will eat a secondary consumer like a toad.
The caterpillar is the primary consumer. If an organism eats plants, it is a primary consumer. If it eats other animals, it is a secondary or tertiary consumer.
Hawks can be either secondary or tertiary consumers, depending on the organism it eats at any particular time. If it eats an herbivore such as a mouse, then it is a secondary consumer. If it eats another carnivore such as a snake, then it is a tertiary consumer.
