A primary consumer is the organism in the food chain that gets its energy directly from the producer. meaning if grass is a producer, cows would be an example of a primary consumer. in laymans terms the primary consumer eats the producer.
the secondary consumer gets 10% of the energy from consuming primary consumer.
Primary consumers in an ecosystem are the animals that eat and get their energy from producers (plants/vegetation etc.) for example: Cabbage (Producer) ----> Caterpillar (primary consumer). Primary consumers are mainly classed as herbivores. A secondary consumer would be something that then eats the primary consumer.
Secondary consumers are organisms that eat primary consumers. Primary consumers eat primary producers. Primary producers are plants that photosynthesize sun light into chemical energy. A cow, for example, that eats grass (a primary producer) is considered to be a primary consumer. The wolf (or a human for that matter), who eats the cow (a primary consumer), is defined as the secondary consumer.
It gets 10% of energy from the secondary consumer.
a spider eating an insect.
A mouse is a primary consumer.
The sun is not considered a primary consumer. In an ecosystem, primary consumers are organisms that directly consume producers (plants or autotrophs) for energy. The sun is the primary source of energy for almost all life on Earth, making it the ultimate source of energy in the food chain.
