These plants are covers in aphids which are prey of ladybirds. In turn, the ladybirds together with locusts, are eaten by shrikes. the rats and mice are kept under control by the hawks and owls. The decomposers release the nutrients back to the soil. Use the information above to answer the following questions 1. What is the primary source of all energy? 2. Name five primary consumers in this food web. 3. Name 5 secondary consumers in this food web. 4. Name one tertiary consumer in this food web. lick to add notes Englith (South Atrical Nates Camments : :ITPM ansener MODLIN by Praline.

Let's analyze the food web described in the information provided and answer the questions step by step. ### Known Conditions: - **Primary Source of Energy**: The food web is based on plants. - **Organisms Mentioned**: - Jackals - Hares - Rats - Mice - Green Vegetation (Plants) - Aphids - Ladybirds - Locusts - Shrikes - Hawks - Owls - Decomposers ### Questions and Answers: 1. **What is the primary source of all energy?** - The primary source of all energy in this food web is **green vegetation (plants)**. Plants are producers that convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. 2. **Name five primary consumers in this food web.** - Primary consumers are organisms that eat producers (plants). In this food web, the primary consumers are: 1. Hares 2. Rats 3. Mice 4. Aphids 5. Locusts 3. **Name five secondary consumers in this food web.** - Secondary consumers are organisms that eat primary consumers. In this food web, the secondary consumers are: 1. Jackals (eating hares) 2. Ladybirds (eating aphids) 3. Shrikes (eating ladybirds and locusts) 4. Hawks (eating rats and mice) 5. Owls (eating rats and mice) 4. **Name one tertiary consumer in this food web.** - A tertiary consumer is an organism that eats secondary consumers. In this food web, one example of a tertiary consumer is: - **Jackals** (as they can also eat shrikes, which are secondary consumers). ### Summary of Answers: 1. Green vegetation (plants) 2. Hares, Rats, Mice, Aphids, Locusts 3. Jackals, Ladybirds, Shrikes, Hawks, Owls 4. Jackals This breakdown provides a clear understanding of the roles of different organisms in the food web described.
