The biomass of a first-order heterotroph, typically represented by primary consumers like herbivores, refers to the total mass of living organisms that consume primary producers (plants or phytoplankton) for energy. This biomass can vary significantly based on the ecosystem, availability of food sources, and environmental conditions. In ecological studies, it is often measured to understand energy transfer through trophic levels and the overall health of an ecosystem.
A grasshopper is a heterotroph.

Any animal would be a heterotroph since they need to find food for themselves.
A heterotroph is a creature that must ingest biomass to obtain its energy and nutrition.

They eat plants as their primary source of food.

A first-order heterotroph is an organism that consumes autotrophs or other heterotrophs to obtain energy and nutrients for survival. This term is commonly used in ecological studies to describe the trophic level of an organism in a food chain or food web.
An anteater would be considered a 2nd order heterotroph in most cases. An anteater would be considered a 2nd order heterotroph in most cases.
An autograph is a persons signature. A heterotroph is an organism that utilises organic molecules in order to grow. An organism that eats other organisms in order to survive.
biomass energy was first discovered in the mid 1800's
heterotroph
A 2nd order heterotroph is an organism that feeds on primary consumers (1st order heterotrophs) in a food chain. They obtain energy by consuming other organisms rather than producing their own food through photosynthesis. Examples include carnivores that feed on herbivores or omnivores.
