What is an example of a food chain in the euphotic open ocean?

A food chain in the euphotic zone of the open ocean begins with phytoplankton, to zoo-plankton, or other filter feeders (sardines, shell fish; i.e. primary consumers), then secondary consumers, and finally tertiary consumers like game fish or humans.


Is a carnivore a first order consumer?

Yes, a carnivore is considered a second-order consumer because it feeds on primary consumers (herbivores) that are the first-order consumers in a food chain or food web.


What are humans trophic level?

Actually,trophic level is feeding position of animals in food chain or food web in ecosystem. [ANIMALS WHICH CONSUME ENERGY CALLED AS CONSUMERS]They are classified as primary consumers [plant eaters are called herbivores] secondary consumers [flesh eaters are called carnivores] tertiary consumers [Eaters of both plants and flesh are called omnivores] RABBIT IS PRIMARY.SPIDER IS SECONDARY AND HUMANS ARE TERTIARY CONSUMERS


What are humans considered in the food web?

Humans are considered apex predators in the food web, meaning they are at the top of the food chain and typically do not have natural predators. However, humans are omnivores and also consume plants, making them a part of multiple trophic levels in the food web.


Is a second order consumer a carnivore?

Yes, a second order consumer is typically a carnivore. Second order consumers feed on herbivores, which in turn feed on plants. This places them higher in the food chain and indicates that they primarily consume animal matter.

What is List of consumers of the ocean?

The list of consumers of the ocean includes various organisms that rely on marine ecosystems for food. These consumers range from tiny zooplankton and fish to larger predators like sharks, dolphins, and whales. Additionally, seabirds and humans also play a significant role as consumers, utilizing ocean resources for sustenance. The complex interactions among these consumers contribute to the overall health and balance of marine environments.

What is a fifth order consumer?

It is a consumer that is at the top of the food web. Food webs have producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers, quaternary consumers, and fifth order consumers. Fifth order consumers have to eat at least one quaternary consumer to make it to that level. They do not eat other fifth order consumers and can also eat anything lower than their level.

How does photosynthesis affect crocodiles?

Photosynthesis provides food for the producers, which are then eaten by first-order consumers, which may be eaten by second-order consumers, and so on, which are then eaten by crocodiles, which are probably the highest-order consumer in the food web, unless humans are involved. Without photosynthesis to convert light energy into chemical energy in food molecules, there would be no producers or consumers, and no crocodiles (or humans).


Are humans producers consumers or not a part of the food chain?

because human doesn't produce his own food


Are humans tertiary consumers?

Yes, humans are considered tertiary consumers because they primarily feed on organisms from the secondary consumer level in the food chain. As omnivores, humans consume both plants (primary consumers) and animals (secondary consumers), placing them at the tertiary consumer level in many ecosystems.
