| Draggable item | arrow_right_alt | Corresponding Item |
|---|---|---|
Detritivore | arrow_right_alt | Only eat producers |
Primary Producer | arrow_right_alt | Only eat other consumers |
Primary Consumer | arrow_right_alt | Eat both producers & consumers |
Secondary Consumer | arrow_right_alt | Eat bits of dead matter |
Herbivore | arrow_right_alt | a step in an ecological pyramid |
Trophic Level | arrow_right_alt | an organism that makes its own energy |
3rd Level Consumer | arrow_right_alt | typically a herbivore, that eats primary producers & is in the second trophic level |
Omnivore | arrow_right_alt | typically a carnivore or omnivore, that eats primary consumers |
Carnivore | arrow_right_alt | primarily feeds on secondary consumers & occupies the highest trophic level |
Make a food chain showing both a producer & consumer.
Make a food web showing at least 2 consumers & 2 producers.
