Marina86 [1]3 years ago
4 0

The type of organisms that take energy by eating up other organisms in an ecosystem are called 'CONSUMERS'. Now these consumers are further divided into three major classes:

1. Primary consumers: this type of consumers feed directly from the producers (plants) and they only eat grass, leaves, vegetables, etc. Such animals are also called herbivores. Example: rabbit

2. Secondary consumers: these are the animals that eat up primary consumers (animals that feed only on plants). These animals are called carnivores. Example: snake

3. Tertiary consumers: animals that eat carnivores which eats a herbivore are called tertiary consumers. They can be completely carnivore or omnivore (who feed on animals and plants both). Example: humans (they feed on animals and plants both)

There are three ways that heat can move from one place to another. Use examples pertaining to how heat is transferred from the s
jenyasd209 [6]
The three ways that heat is transferred are as follows:
Conduction, convection, and radiation.
Radiation is when heat is transferred in waves. It is the only type of transfer that can occur in a vacuum, so that is how heat reaches earth from the sun.
Conduction is when heat is transferred between solid objects. That is how heat is transferred between objects on the earths surface.
Convetsion is when heat is transferred through a liquid. This is how the ocean heats all the way through, rather than just the surface.
