Another name for consumer is and autotroph
First level consumers are called herbivores, second level are called carnivores, and omnivores can eat meat or plants so omnivores can be either first level, second level, or third level.
Secondary consumers are called secondary consumers because they occupy the second trophic level in an ecosystem, following primary consumers that feed on producers. They obtain energy by consuming primary consumers, making them the second link in the food chain.
Consumers that feed on producers are called herbivores, while consumers that feed on other consumers are called carnivores. Omnivores consume both producers and other consumers. Examples of animals that fall into these categories include rabbits (herbivore), lions (carnivore), and humans (omnivore).

they are called consumers.
First level consumers are called herbivores, second level are called carnivores, and omnivores can eat meat or plants so omnivores can be either first level, second level, or third level.
Third level consumers are consumers that feed on second level consumers. A hawk eating a rattlesnake would be an example of a third level consumer. In a forest ecosystem, snakes are third level consumers. Herons and large fish are also third level consumers.
