What is the difference between producers primary consumers secondary consumers and decomposers?
producers- a living thing that gets its energy from the sun ex. plants
primary consumers or herbivores. Are living things that get their energy from plants. ex. rabbits
secondary consumers or omnivores. Are Living things that get their energy from either plants or other animals. Ex. A bear
tertiary consumers or carnivores. Are living things that get their energy from other animals only ex. a mountain lion
decomposers. Are living things that break down dead organisms. ex. Mushrooms Note not to be confused with detrivores living things that eat dead things.

What are the organisms in the river ecosystem and if they're producers consumers or decomposers and what type primary secondary etc?
In a river ecosystem, organisms can be classified into producers, consumers, and decomposers. Producers, such as aquatic plants and phytoplankton, convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. Primary consumers include herbivorous insects and small fish that feed on these producers, while secondary consumers consist of larger fish and carnivorous insects that prey on the primary consumers. Decomposers, like bacteria and fungi, break down dead organic matter, recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem.
How does the biogeochemical cycle work?
Example Producers ----- Consumers ----- Secondary consumers ----- Decomposers ------ Soil ----- Producers ----- (And so on)
Which list shows a possible order in which energy moves through an ecosystem?
Energy in an ecosystem typically flows from producers to consumers and then to decomposers. A possible order could be: sunlight (energy source) → plants (producers) → herbivores (primary consumers) → carnivores (secondary consumers) → decomposers (fungi and bacteria). This pathway illustrates how energy is transferred through different trophic levels.
What are the components in an ecological pyramid?
Primary producers (plants, algae) decomposers (worms, fungi) Primary consumers (herbivores) Secondary consumers (carnivores) Trimary consumers (carnivores) usually stops there because of energy loss
How many trophic levels are in the food chain?
There are four trophic levels in an ecological pyramid. They are primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers.
Are consumers a food source?
Yes. SUN Producers Primary Consumers Secondary Consumers Tertiary Consumers Decomposers

Are sea cucumbers secondary consumers?
They are decomposers.
Are moles secondary consumers?
No, mushrooms are decomposers.
What are the all the tropic levels?
The trophic levels in an ecosystem are: producers (plants), primary consumers (herbivores), secondary consumers (carnivores that eat herbivores), tertiary consumers (carnivores that eat other carnivores), and decomposers (organisms that break down dead matter).
What do consumers eat secondary consumers?
Secondary Consumers eat other primary consumers. Primary consumers eat plants or producers.
Do primary consumers depend on secondary consumers?
no they depend on producers.
Did producers or consumers come first?
Producers. The producers make the food, then consumers eat it, then secondary consumers eat them, and so on and so fourth.
How are producers related to primary consumers in ecosystem?
Answer this question… Primary consumers eat secondary consumers, which rely on producers for food.
What are some producers consumers and decomposers in the rain forest?
producer peach palm consumer parrot secondary consumer mokey tertiary consumer jaguar decompose bacteria
Is a tiger composer?
No, the tiger is a consumer, a secondary consumer in the food chain. Composer is not a trophic position on a food chain. Organisms are either producers, consumers or decomposers.
