Why all consumers are dependent on producers for food?
Consumers can't make their own food.
Who is the consumer in food chain?
Autotroph
Are primary consumers omnivores?
In the food chain, there are producers (make their own food), and comsumers (eat producers or other consumers) only autotrophs (mainly plants) can make their own food. Herbovores eat plants, primary carnovores eat herbavores, and secondary carnovores eat herbovores and primary carnovores.
What do primary consumers eat?
Primary consumers eat autotrophs, or producers. Producers are mostly plants that make their own food using energy from the sun.
Is a Hognose snake a producer or a consumer in the food web?
They are consumers because they do not make there own

Make a food chain with a producer and 3 consumers?
In a food chain, there are four crucial members. There are the primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers and tertiary consumers. An example of a food chain can be found in a stream found in a forest. The primary producers would be plant like producers such as algae that produce food energy for the primary consumers which would be small microorganisms, or very small fish. The secondary consumers such as salmon will feed on these primary consumers for food. The tertiary consumers such as bears will feed on the secondary consumers for their food.
Should food chain be preserved why?
The food chain is the process by which sunlight energy is captured by plants (producers) which make food. Plants are then eaten by herbivores (primary consumers)n which are in turn eaten by carnivores (secondary consumers). Man is an animal and part of this food chain, if we destroy the food chain we will die.
What make a food chain with a producer and 3 consumers?

Does a food chain start with the sun?
The usual food chain starts with a producer, such as a green plant.The producer uses an energy source, such as the sun, to produce food. Consumers eat the producers, and secondary consumers (meat eaters) eat the primary consumers (the plant eaters).BUT -If someone wants to emphasize the flow of energy, they make a slightly different food chain that starts with the sun, then the producers, then the consumers and then the decomposers.If you get this question on a test, what you learned in class will have to be your guide to which is the right answer!
How are producers consumers carnivores and scavenger and decomposers linked in a food chain?
they each use plants for energy or use it to gain food or make food
What is a consumer in any food chain?
We are consumers as we do not make our own food. We have to eat other animals (cows, pigs, chickens) or plants (corn, wheat, rye) for food. The cows, pigs and chickens are also consumers.
How are producers consumers herbivore carnivores and scavengers and decomposers linked in a food chain?
they each use plants for energy or use it to gain food or make food
Do primary consumers make up the first trophic level in a food web?
No. Producers always make up the first trophic level in a food web or chain.
What kind of living thing is at the start of a food chain?
The organisms at the beginning of the food chain are called producers or autotrophs, such as plants and algae. Some make their own food using the sun's energy through photosynthesis and some producers use chemosynthesis to make their own food.Above them would be 1st level consumers, then 2nd level consumers and so on.
Do primary consumers always make up the first trophic level in a food web?
No. Producers always make up the first trophic level in a food web or chain.
Why is there always more producers than consumers in a food chain?
because plants under go photosynthesis and make there own food to reproduce and create more producers. while consumers which are not plants and don't under go photosynthesis they are more liable to die out.
