Question

In general,
Why would you expect a carnivores to be camouflaged and larger than herbivores?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Herbivores obtain energy from plants, which are producers of energy, and so build up a large supply of it. This is transformed into bodily growth. However, carnivores obtain energy from other animals, which use energy. Because they use so much of it, very little is actually taken by the carnivore, and so they must eat very large amounts to even reach an acceptable minimum. The process of hunting and obtaining prey is also quite energy-intensive. As a result, they cannot turn large amounts of energy into body mass
