5 (10 pts). Describe the difference between a primary producer, primary consumer and secondary or tertiary consumer, and give an
Elodia [21]

Answer:

<u>Food chain as given below</u>

Explanation:

  • A consumer is a living creature in the food chain that eats other consumers and maintains a balance in the food web. Primary producers are all green plants that prepare their food by their ability to utilize the sun's energy and convert that available raw energy into starch in their body by the process of photosynthesis.  
  • These Autotrophs take up the organic matter through their roots in the form xylem and phylum and giving oxygen in the air. They form the base of the food chain on which are dependent Herbivorous like sheep, goat, cow, etc.  
  • The secondary consumers are called the Carnivorous, like the lion, tiger, etc that feed on the bodies of herbivorous. Above this level is that of Omnivorous i.e both plant and animal eaters like the crow, man, and cat.
  • As stated by the law of thermodynamics energy can neither be destroyed nor created but transforms itself. The flow of energy at each trophic level gets successively transferred to the next trophic level from primary to secondary tertiary and so on.
  • Likewise, toxin concentration in trophic levels increased each level upwards and leads to biomagnification that is harmful to the entire food chain.

A force that slowly wears away mountains and other features on the surface of Earth is a. constructive. b. destructive. c. super
alexira [117]

The correct answer is - b. destructive.

Once the mountains stop their lifting up and also the other features are done with their formation, the erosion process takes over and starts to do its work by slowly wearing down the mountains and other features. The tendency of the erosion process is to flatten everything that it affects, so if there isn't any significant change that will cause lifting up of the terrain, the erosion will be able to flatten the space as much as possible. The erosive processes are considered as destructive processes because they are destroying the land features.
