Energy Flow in Ecosystem Correct Answer-Primary Producers>Primary Consumers>Secondary Consumers>Tertiary Consumers - Primary producers (plants, algae, and some bacteria) use solar energy to produce organic plant material through photosynthesis. - Second trophic level: Herbivores—animals that feed solely on plants—make up the. - Third Tropic level: Predators that eat herbivores; if larger predators are present, they represent still higher trophic levels. - Highest of th...
