Answer:

Omnivorous animals can be described as a primary consumer or a secondary consumer.

Explanation:

Some heterotrophs can derive their nutrition from plant sources and animal sources both. These organisms are called omnivorous animals. When an omnivorous organism derives its nutrition from plant sources, it serves as a primary consumer. On the other hand, when the same omnivorous organism derives its nutrition from animal sources, it serves as a secondary consumer. Squirrels and rats are examples of such heterotrophs.

natima [27]

The correct answer is option A, that is, a landfill in the region of nonporous bedrock.  

A permanent waste disposal facility where the wastes are put into the ground and covered with a layer of plastic, soil, or both is known a landfill. A secure chemical landfill refers to a landfill developed in the region of nonporous bedrock.

A secure chemical landfill is a prudently engineered depression in the ground or constructed on the top of the ground, signifying a football stadium into which wastes are dumped. The objective is to inhibit any water-related or hydraulic association between the surrounding environment and the wastes, mainly groundwater.
