Brief Explanations
- Abiotic factors: These are non - living components of an ecosystem like soil, water, and sunlight. They have nothing to do with the feeding behavior of animals (herbivores).
- Secondary consumer: Secondary consumers are organisms that eat primary consumers. For example, a fox that eats a rabbit (where the rabbit is a primary consumer). Since herbivores eat plants (producers), they are not secondary consumers.
- Primary consumer: Primary consumers are organisms that eat producers (plants). Herbivores, by definition, eat plants. So, herbivores are primary consumers.
