Detailed explanation-1: -There are four types of consumers: omnivores, carnivores, herbivores and decomposers. Herbivores are living things that only eat plants to get the food and energy they need. Animals like whales, elephants, cows, pigs, rabbits, and horses are herbivores. Carnivores are living things that only eat meat.

Detailed explanation-2: -A horse is a mammal that is a primary consumer. They are herbivores and eat mostly vegetation. Horses are very social animals and live in herds. In the wild, they roam freely and graze on grasses all day long.

Detailed explanation-3: -Primary consumers are always herbivores, or organisms that only eat autotrophic plants. However, secondary consumers can either be carnivores or omnivores. Carnivores only eat other animals, and omnivores eat both plant and animal matter.

Detailed explanation-4: -Secondary consumers are carnivores that prey on herbivorous animals. Omnivores, which feed on both plants and animals, can be considered as being both primary and secondary consumers.
