Algae, crabs, fish, sharks

400

Name all of the trophic levels starting from the first to the last that we discussed and an example animal/organism of each level.

• Level 1: Primary Producers (Autotrophs): Organisms that create their own food using sunlight (e.g., plants, algae, and phytoplankton). 
• Level 2: Primary Consumers (Herbivores): Animals that eat primary producers (e.g., insects, rabbits, and zooplankton). 
• Level 3: Secondary Consumers (Carnivores/Omnivores): Animals that eat primary consumers (e.g., frogs, small fish, and spiders).
• Level 4: Tertiary Consumers (Carnivores): Larger predators that eat secondary consumers (e.g., sharks, wolves, and hawks). 
• Level 5: Apex Predators: Carnivores at the very top of the food chain that have no natural predators (e.g., orcas, lions, and polar bears).
• Decomposers & Detritivores/Scavengers: Organisms like fungi, bacteria, and earthworms that break down dead plants, animals, and waste, recycling nutrients back into the soil for producers. Also, vultures and other animals as scavengers.
