What else can I help you with?
What is a consumer eating a producer represent?
a transfer of chemical nutriet and energy
Why do consumer depend on producers for food?
Without producers the consumers would have nothing to eat and wouldn't have any energy. Producers get energy directly from the sun. Consumers can't make their own food or energy without eating something else.
What is it called when you have a poison in the top consumer of food web?
This is not called anything, as it is not possible. A food web shows the transfer of energy from one organism to the other, not just what kills what. For example, a food web will generally show arrows going from a producer, to a primary consumer, to a secondary consumer, and looping back with a decomposer, such as a worm.
Is a cactus wren a consumer or a producer?
Birds do not produce energy from light, so they cannot be producers. All birds are consumers.
Is a deer a primary secondary consumer?
is a deer a secondary consumer
What do you call the transfer of food energy through a series of consumer?
producers
When can a small biomass of producers support a consumers?
A small biomass of producers can support a consumer population when there is enough energy available from the producers to sustain the consumer species. This relationship is dependent on factors such as energy transfer efficiency and the specific nutritional requirements of the consumer species. If the producers can replenish their biomass efficiently and there is minimal energy loss along the food chain, a small biomass of producers can indeed support a consumer population.
Organisms that eat producers or other organisms for energy is called what?
Consumer
What is the science defintion of a primary consumer?
Primary Consumer - an organism that gets its energy from producers (plants). These are often called herbivores.
Where is lamb on the energy pyramid?
Lamb is considered a secondary consumer on the energy pyramid. It occupies a higher trophic level as it is a herbivore that feeds on plants (primary producers) and is then consumed by predators. This positioning reflects the energy transfer in ecosystems, where energy diminishes as it moves up the pyramid from producers to various consumer levels.
How much energy is transfered between consumers and producers?
Energy transfer between consumers and producers is not 100% efficient. Some energy is lost as heat during each step of the transfer. Generally, only about 10% of the energy from one trophic level is transferred to the next level. This inefficiency results in a pyramid-shaped energy transfer model in an ecosystem.
If something is not a producer what is it called?
Consumer Producers make their own food (like plants), while consumers (animals) eat other stuff to get their food.
Is an lion a producer or a consumer?
Consumer because a consumer eats plants and animals for energy Producers create their energy through photosynthesis
The organism that feeds on producers is called?
The organism that feeds on producers is called a herbivore. Herbivores consume plant-based food sources as their primary source of energy and nutrients.
Is the transfer of energy called?
The transfer of energy is called Energy Transfer
Why doesnt the energy from a producer all transfer to the secondary consumer?
Not all the energy from a producer transfer to a secondary consumer because some of this energy is lost along the way.
An organism that can not make its own food?
An organism that cannot make its own food is called a consumer. Organisms that make their own food are called producers. Consumers must create energy from eating producers or other consumers.
