Answer: B
Explanation:
Ammonia is so toxic that it can be transported and excreted only in large volumes of very dilute solution. As a result most terrestrial animals simply don't have access to sufficient water to routine excrete ammonia.
The main advantage of urea is its very low toxicity. Animals can transport urea in the circulatory system and store it safely in high concentrations. Also much less water is loss when a given quantity of nitrogen is excreted in a concentrated solution of urea than would be in a dilute solution of ammonia.
Answer: D) The lizard and the snake are secondary consumers.
Explanation:
Producers are organisms that, simply put, produce their own food. All photosynthesizing plants are considered to be producers. Animals cannot be producers.
Primary consumers eat producers.
Secondary consumers eat primary consumers.
Tertiary consumers eat secondary consumers, and so on.
The lizard eats a fly, which is a primary consumer. This makes the lizard a secondary consumer.
The snake eats a mouse, which is a primary consumer. This makes the snake a secondary consumer.

B) is incorrect because grass is a producer, not a consumer
