Answer 1

Answer:

1. Grasshopper: herbivore
2. Rat: omnivore
3. Fox: carnivore/scavenger
4. Owl: carnivore
5. Snake: carnivore
6. Squirrel: omnivore
7. Fly: omnivore

Explanation:

These animals are grouped in a very simple manner. If an animal eats only meat or other animals it is called a carnivore, e.g: lions. If an animal eats only plants like a cow, it is a herbivore. An animal which eats both meat and plants is known as an omnivore like many birds. A scavenger is an animal that eats what another animal has procured.

A producer is an living creature capable of making its own food. Plants are the world's only producers as they can make their own food through photosythesis.  Photosynthesis is a process in which the plant captures light through leaves and water and minerals through the roots. The plant also uses carbondioxide to make it's food. It releases oxygen in return.
