Are penguins harmful to environment?
Penguins are not harmful to the environment. They are important members of the ecosystem, playing a role in the food chain and helping to maintain the balance of marine ecosystems. However, they are vulnerable to environmental changes and human activities, so it is important to protect their habitats to ensure their survival.
How does melting sea ice affect penguins?
Some penguins, like Emperor Penguins, breed and raise their young entirely on sea ice. When sea ice melts earlier at the end of winter this disrupts the breeding season. Another problem is that the penguins' food source, krill and other tiny crustaceans, survives on phytoplankton and zooplankton that grow on the ice. As the ice disappears, so does the plankton, disrupting the food chain.
What is the name of the second link in a food chain?
The second link in a food chain is typically referred to as the primary consumer, which feeds on the producer (first link) and is then consumed by the secondary consumer.
What is most likely to occupy the second trophic level in a food chain a potato a worm that eats the potato a bird that eats the worm or the fox that eats the bird?
The second trophic level in a food chain is typically occupied by primary consumers, which are organisms that eat producers. In this case, the worm that eats the potato would be the primary consumer and thus occupy the second trophic level. The potato represents the first trophic level as a producer, while the bird and the fox occupy higher levels as secondary and tertiary consumers, respectively.
What makes up the second and higher steps in a food chain?
The second and higher steps in a food chain typically consist of consumers, such as herbivores and carnivores, that feed on other organisms. These organisms further transfer energy up the food chain by eating lower trophic level creatures. Each step in the food chain represents a transfer of energy from one organism to another.
Where does penguins fit on the food chain?
Penguins will find their food in the icy sea of Antarctica.
Why ar penguins being killed?
because of the food chain
What animal in Antarctica is top of the food chain?
Some are seals but the answer you are looking for is penguins.
What are both first and second order consumers in Antarctic waters?
The food chain in Antarctica is very short and only exists within the marine environment. The continent is too cold to support any kind of food chain. The lowest -- first order -- consumer is krill. Second order consumers include whales, penguins, and more.
What goes second in the food chain?
Primary consumers are second in the food chain.
How do penguins nourish themselves?
Penguins feed on krill, which is the base of the Antarctic food chain. (The entire Antarctic food chain exists in the Antarctic seas and oceans that surround the continent: it's too cold for any nourishment to grow on the continent.)
Would you find polar bear penguins in Antarctica?
You would find penguins, which are sea birds. There is no food chain on the Antarctic continent to support polar bears.
Is a leopord seal a predator?
Yup! They are carnivores, second largest seal, and extremely dangerous. They are near the top of the food chain in their environment. They tend to eat penguins, fish, krill, squids, and the young of other animals.
What are the penguins names that live in Antarctica?
No animal lives in Antarctica: it's too cold and there is no food chain. Penguins are sea birds that visit Antarctica's beaches to breed, and include Adelie and Emperor penguins.
Why do Adelie penguins live on Antarctica?
Adelie penguins do not live on Antarctica. They are sea birds and find their food chain there, where they make their home. Adelie -- and three other types of penguins -- breed on Antarctica's beaches, because there are no land predators there.
Do penguins live on glaciers in Antarctica?
Penguins are sea birds and make their homes in ocean water. Penguins breed on Antarctica's beaches, because there are no land predators there. No animals live on Antarctica: it's too cold and there is no food chain.
What is a penguins food chain?
the bird is actually what family it belongs to but its like a fish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I think its secondary but im really not sure
