Question

In the food web diagram which two organisms are secondary consumers?

  1. Rabbit, snake 
  2. Hawk, grasshopper
  3. Lizard, snake
  4. 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.
