Question

match each trophic level with its hierarchical feeding position. first trophic level second trophic level third trophic level fourth trophic level fifth trophic level apex preadtor primary consumer primary producer secondary consumer tirtiary consumer

Explanation:

• The first trophic level consists of primary producers (e.g., plants) that make their own food via photosynthesis.
• The second trophic level has primary consumers (e.g., herbivores) that eat primary producers.
• The third trophic level is for secondary consumers (e.g., small carnivores) that eat primary consumers.
• The fourth trophic level includes tertiary consumers (e.g., larger carnivores) that eat secondary consumers.
• The fifth trophic level is occupied by apex predators (top - of - the - food - chain carnivores) with no natural predators.

Answer:

FIRST TROPHIC LEVEL - PRIMARY PRODUCER
SECOND TROPHIC LEVEL - PRIMARY CONSUMER
THIRD TROPHIC LEVEL - SECONDARY CONSUMER
FOURTH TROPHIC LEVEL - TIRTIARY CONSUMER
FIFTH TROPHIC LEVEL - APEX PREDATOR
