In the above food web green algae is the producer, periwinkle and microscopic animals are primary consumers; mussel, barnacle, dogwhelk and crab are secondary consumers; dogwhelk and crab comes under tertiary consumer; dogfish is a quaternary consumer.
What is a food web?
It is a natural interconnection of several food chains in a single ecosystem. Each food chain supplies energy and nutrients through the ecosystem. There are four food webs producer, herbivores, carnivores, omnivores and decomposers.
Here green algae comes under autotrophs(prepares their own food), periwinkle and microscopic animals are herbivores(depend on producer); mussel, barnacle, dogwhelk and crab are carnivores(depend on herbivore); dogfish is an omnivore(depends on both producer and carnivore).

Answer:
Glaciers bring quantities of minerals beneficial to plants as the water runs off melting ice.
Explanation:
Glaciers are natural reservoirs of water and minerals that may persist to dry conditions during the summer season. Ice melting provides water and minerals during the warm season, which is therefore critical for plants living in dry summer environments. Moreover, it is well-known that the 'melt-water' (i.e., water released by the melting of glacial ice) also affects downstream stream water temperatures, creating a microhabitat that may be beneficial to the life of plant species.
Binocular vision has the disadvantage of a smaller field of view, but the advantage of much greater depth perception, or the ability to distinguish the distance of an object. Binocular vision also allows for stereopsis, or the ability to view the world in three dimensions. Prey animals tend to have monocular vision.
