This document discusses the three types of consumers in a food chain: primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers. Primary consumers, like herbivores, eat plants and get energy directly from them. Secondary consumers eat primary consumers, and tertiary consumers eat secondary consumers to obtain energy. Examples of food chains provided are grass-grasshopper-shrew-owl and rabbit-fox-lion.

1. ENERGY
( FOOD CHAIN)

2. Types of Consumers:
There are three types of consumers.
Primary Consumers
Secondary Consumers
Tertiary Consumers

3. Primary Consumers:
Herbivores are primary consumers because they
eat plants so they get energy directly from plants.

4. Secondary Consumers:
Consumers that get energy by eating primary
consumers, are known as secondary consumers.

5. Tertiary Consumers:
Consumers that get energy by eating secondary
consumers, are known as tertiary consumers.

6. Food Chains:
Draw the arrows in the right direction and complete the food
chain:

7. Complete the food chain according to given consumers.
Fox, Lion, Rabbit
Blue jay, grass hopper, owl
