Ecosystem Roles
- Producers are living organisms that make their own food using energy from the sun, such as plants, grass, and cacti.
Consumers
- Primary consumers (herbivores) eat plants, examples include horses, rabbits, and cows.
- Secondary consumers (carnivores) eat other animals, examples include eagles, lions, and tigers.
- Tertiary consumers (omnivores) eat both plants and animals, examples include foxes, human beings, and pigs.
Decomposers
- Decomposers are organisms that break down dead organic matter, returning it to the soil, examples include bacteria and fungi.
Scavengers
- Scavengers are living organisms that feed on dead animals or plants, examples include vultures, jackals, and hyenas.
