What are the different groups of animals according to the food they eat?

Answer 1

One way of dividing animals is into herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores. The division is rather fuzzy (cats sometimes eat grass), and incomplete (there is such a thing as a detritivore). But it is broadly useful.

Answer 2

Animals can be classified by the types of foods they consume. These classifications are:

• Carnivore - carnivorous creatures are meat-eaters
• Herbivore - herbivorous creatures are plant-eaters
• Insectivore - insectivorous creatures eat insects
• Frugivore - frugivorous creatures are fruit-eaters
• Omnivore - omnivorous creatures eat just about anything

None of these classifications are exclusive, however. For example, herbivorous animals will tend to eat insects and fruit. Carnivores may eat plant parts if it helps their digestion.

Answer 3

Well there's carnivores which only eat meat, herbivores which only eat plants, and theres omnivores which eat both plants and meat
There are three groupings: Herbivores, eat plant food. Cows, chickens, sheep etc. Carnivores eat only meat. Lions, tigers, sharks, etc. Omnivores, eat both plant and meat in their diet. Most primates, Canines, felines etc.

Answer 4

Animals can be classified into three main groups based on their food habits: herbivores (eat plants), carnivores (eat other animals), and omnivores (eat both plants and animals). Within each group, there are further subcategories based on specific feeding strategies and preferences.

Answer 5

well if they eat plants there herbivores if they eat meat ther carnivores and if they eat both there omnivores
