Primary consumers depend on energy from plants for survival. Higher consumers depend on energy from primary consumers for surviv
Anni [7]

The correct answer is - B. The number and type of plants in an ecosystem determines the number and type of consumers that can live there.

The plants are producers. They are the basis of the ecosystems on Earth. By consuming the plants, the consumers are able to survive and thrive, thus the food chain develops further up to the predators that are consuming other consumers.

The number of plants and the type of plants determines what type and how many species of consumers can live somewhere. The more plants there are, the more food for the consumers, thus there will be more consumers. The higher the diversification of the plants, the higher the diversification of the consumers will be too, as every plant is unique and specialization for consuming it is needed, thus the consumers will evolve into new species in accordance to the food source.
