4.4 - Trophic levels


1. Different trophic levels refers to the name given to the different feeding levels
2. The producer is something that changes light energy to Chemical energy
3. The primary consumer eats the producer and takes in its chemical energy of the plant and changes it to its own chemical energy
4. The secondary consumer eats the primary consumer and takes in its Chemical energy and turns it into its own
5. The tertiary consumer takes the chemical energy of the secondary consumer and changes it into his own.
6. All organisms eventually die -> They are then eaten by decomposers like bacteria and fungi. This is important because they then change it into nitrates and phosphates.
