Which of these organisms is mismacked with its trophic level? algae, producer, phytoplankton, primary consumer.
00:10
Navarous fish larvae, secondary consumer.
00:13
Eagle, tertiary or quaternary consumer.
00:16
Let's go through some trophic levels.
00:18
The lowest level is the producer.
00:21
So producers are autotrophs.
00:24
They do not get their organic molecules from consuming other life.
00:29
They make them.
00:30
Usually you'll see them made by photosynthesis.
00:35
Then you have the primary consumer.
00:37
So a primary consumer eats the producer.
00:41
So this is something that gets its energy from eating producers, eating plants, eating anything else that does photosynthesis.
00:50
A secondary consumer eats the primary consumer.
00:57
So this is where you're getting a carnival, because at this point it is now eating something else that eats other things, like eating other animals.
01:07
And you can keep going.
01:09
Tertiary or quaternary, well, tertiary would be eating the secondary consumer.
01:13
Quaternary will be eating the tertiary.
01:15
And an organism can occupy multiple trophic levels...
