A
HERBIVORES
B
CARNIVORES
C
PRODUCERS
D
NONE OF THE ABOVE
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A secondary producer is a herbivore, and is a food for a predator. Thus, it is the Correct option.

Detailed explanation-2: -Primary producers-plants, algae, and bacteria-make up the base of the pyramid, the first trophic level. Through a process called photosynthesis, producers capture energy from the sun and use it to create simple organic molecules, which they use for food.

Detailed explanation-3: -The organisms that eat the primary producers are called primary consumers. Primary consumers are usually herbivores (plant-eaters), though they may be algae or bacteria eaters. The organisms that eat the primary consumers are called secondary consumers. Secondary consumers are generally meat-eaters (carnivores).

Detailed explanation-4: -A secondary producer is a herbivore, an animal that eats plant matter and, in turn, is food for a predator. In this way, a secondary producer is also a consumer, because it must eat plants to survive; but since herbivores produce food themselves (for predators), they are considered a secondary producer.
