Consumers are of three types i.e.

1. Primary consumers

• They include herbivores that feed directly on plants or autotrophs.

• About 90% of the energy is lost to the environment as heat when energy is transferred as the producers are eaten by primary consumers.

Cow, buffalo, goat, deer, and rabbit are examples.

     2. Secondary consumers

• These organisms feed on other consumers.
• They include usually carnivores and omnivores.
• The carnivores can be predatory or parasitic as the mode of nutrition.

For example Frog, jackal, fox small fish, big fish, dogs, crow, etc.
