Solution

Herbivores:

  • An herbivore is a primary level consumer, which consumes autotrophs or plants. Example: Goat, deer, and rabbit.

The trophic level of herbivores:

  • The producers are present at the bottom (T1 or trophic level 1) in a food chain.
  • The herbivores that feed on them or eat them, thus form the trophic level 2 or T2.
  • Herbivores make the second trophic level (T2) in a food chain.
