Question
In the food web diagram which two organisms are secondary consumers?
- Rabbit, snake
- Hawk, grasshopper
- Lizard, snake
- Hawk, lizard
Hint:
In a food web or food chain, the organism which belongs to the third position is called the second-level consumer.
The correct answer is: Lizard, snake
- In the food web diagram, the two organisms which are secondary consumers are lizards and snakes.
- Secondary consumers are the ones which occupy the third position in any given food chain or food web. They often consume primary consumers and are also known as second-level consumers.
- In the given food web, the lizard consumes grasshopper which itself consumed grass. And therefore, the lizard occupying the second position is a secondary consumer.
- Similarly, the snake consumed rabbit which itself consumed grass. And therefore, the snake is in the third position and is also a secondary consumer.
A food web is a combination of various types of food chains that results from the relationship that exists between these organisms.
