Detailed explanation-1: -Animals and people who eat both animals and plants are called omnivores.
Detailed explanation-2: -Heterotrophs are known as consumers because they consume producers or other consumers. Dogs, birds, fish, and humans are all examples of heterotrophs. Heterotrophs occupy the second and third levels in a food chain, a sequence of organisms that provide energy and nutrients for other organisms.
Detailed explanation-3: -For example, grass uses sunlight to make food. A deer gets energy by eating the plants. After that, a wolf gets energy by eating the deer.
Detailed explanation-4: -All nutritional energy comes from the Sun: plants use chlorophyll to photosynthesize the Sun’s energy into plant energy, and then animals either feed on plants for that energy or they feed on the animals that have eaten that plant energy. The food chain begins with the Sun and then the energy flows to producers.
