Question

When a bird eats a small insect it can be considered a secondary consumer but what is the bird considered as when it eats seeds?
Primary Consumer
Another secondary consumer
Tertiary consumer
Producer

Answer 1

The bird is considered as a Primary consumer when it ears seeds, because it is not relying on other organisms for food.

Answer 2

Answer: Primary consumers

Explanation: Plants are known to be producers, which produce food for the source of energy. They are known as self feeders that feeds themselves by the food they produce.

When the consumers feed directly on the plant (seed) then they are known as  primary consumers(herbivores) but when they eat animals, they are called as secondary consumers.

So, when the bird eats seed it is called as primary consumers but when the bird eats an insect( that feeds on producers) it is called as secondary consumer because here the primary consumer is insect.
