What are some examples of energy sources?
During photosynthesis, a plant - whcih is a producer - absorbs light energy from the sun and converts it into glucose, which is what the plant uses for energy. Some of the energy that the plant made may be released into the atmosphere as heat, some will be eaten by insects and other herbovores, which are called primary consumers. Secondary consumers may eat the primary consumers, getting energy from eating them. Consumers get energy by eating other consumers or producers.
What are the four levels in an energy pyramid?
energy source(sun)>producer(grass)>primary consumer(mouse)>secondary consumer(snake)> tertiary(hawk)>decomposer(fungi) All organisms die and get broken down by decomposers
How do consumers get their energy directly and indirectly from the sun?
Consumers can get energy directly from the sun through solar panels that convert sunlight into electricity. Indirectly, consumers benefit from the sun through various forms of renewable energy like wind power and hydropower, which are ultimately driven by the sun's energy cycle that creates wind and rain.
Some of the sun's is converted into wind and water waves-?
Some of the sun's energy is converted into wind and water waves. Most of the sun's energy are absorbed by the primary producers.
What information does an energy pyramid show?
An energy pyramid shows the flow of energy through different trophic levels in an ecosystem. It illustrates how energy is transferred from producers to primary consumers, secondary consumers, and so on, with each level representing a decrease in energy as it is transferred up the food chain.
What are the primary consumers of coal?
The primary consumers of coal would be energy companies burning it to create energy.
How do primary consumers obtain carbon?
Every producer gets its energy from the sun its called photosynthesis.
Where primary consumers get their energy?
through what they eat
Where is a snail on an energy pyramid?
Primary Consumers

Are deer primary consumers?
Yes, deer are considered primary consumers because they primarily feed on plants as their main source of energy. They play a crucial role in transferring energy from plants to higher trophic levels in the ecosystem.
What are secondary and primary consumers?
Primary consumers feed on producers (plants) and secondary consumers feed on primary consumers. For example, rabbits are primary consumers because they feed on vegetation. Foxes are secondary consumers because they feed on rabbits.
Who are the primary consumers of hydroelectric energy?
Canada and Brazil
What eats primary consumers?
Primary Consumers, also known as Herbivores, are named as such because they eat apostrophes such as plants and algae. Apostrophes store the energy of the sun and Primary Consumers (primary meaning first) are the first to extract this energy from the apostrophes. Primary Consumers are complex organisms that can only be eaten by other organisms; such organisms are called Carnivores.
Why cant a carnivore be a primary consumer in a food chain?
Carnivores cannot be primary consumers in a food chain because they feed on other animals rather than plants or algae, which are the sources of energy in the trophic levels below them. Primary consumers, also known as herbivores, feed directly on producers to obtain energy.
What diagram can be used to show the population of producers primary consumers and secondary consumers in the system?
Energy pyramid
How energy flows through a food chain and a food web?
Energy flows up a food chain, from the primary producers to the primary consumers, to the secondary consumers, up to the tertiary and then quaternary consumers. Energy flows when one organism eats another.
