The formula for net primary production at each trophic level is: Net Primary Production (NPP) = Gross Primary Production (GPP) - Respiration by Autotrophs. GPP is the total amount of energy captured by producers through photosynthesis, while respiration by autotrophs is the amount of energy that producers use for their own metabolic processes. NPP represents the energy available for consumption by organisms in the next trophic level.
The group of organisms that occupy the second trophic level of an ecosystem is the herbivores. The herbivores eat the plants in the first trophic level and are then called primary consumers. -Gallo :)
primary producer
Trophic level efficiency is typically measured by calculating the amount of energy transferred from one trophic level to the next. This is done by analyzing the ratio of energy present in the biomass of one trophic level compared to the trophic level below it. The efficiency of energy transfer between trophic levels is usually around 10%, meaning that only around 10% of energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next.
A blue whale is a primary consumer, meaning it is at the second trophic level. It feeds mainly on krill and small fish, which are primary producers.
The giraffe occupies the second trophic level because it is a primary consumer. Giraffes are herbivores so they feed off of the producers in the first trophic level.
Their trophic level is primary consumer.
primary
The organism resides at the primary consumer trophic level.
It is the 2nd consumer on the trophic level! :)
Without specific organisms provided, it is difficult to determine their trophic level. However, plants are typically found at the primary producer level (first trophic level), herbivores at the primary consumer level (second trophic level), carnivores at the secondary or tertiary consumer levels, and decomposers at the final trophic level.

primary producer
The 3rd trophic level contains organisms that are primary consumers, often herbivores that feed on producers from the 1st trophic level. These organisms are then consumed by predators at higher trophic levels.
Not sure what yo mean by trophic level. But the classification is called herbivore.
Secondary consumers belong on the 2nd level trophic level yah!

Plants are primary producers, the first trophic level after the sun.
