Answer:

Producers are organisms like plants that create and produce energy, herbivores are plant eaters, and predators are meat eaters. This means that decomposers are the organisms that eat dead and decaying meat. Hope that helps. :)

What are the trade-offs of using insecticides to kill mosquitoes?
olga2289 [7]
This can select for resistant mosquitoes. After a couple of years, the population is entirely resistant to the insecticides you used. The insecticides may also kill off the beneficial insects (like pollinators e.g. bees) or the predator insects that ate the mosquitoes. Bioaccumulation and biomagnification in the food chain can lead to unintended deaths of high-level predators, e.g. DDT leading to deaths of eagles and falcons. I hope this is correct.

Any article published in magazines, newspapers and journals that reflect the original result but do not have the exact words written in the research paper are all secondary sources.
