Solution

The correct option is A Rabbit
The intermediate level (or the level after the first level) in a food chain is occupied by herbivores or omnivores.
In this example, rabbit is a herbivore as it feeds on green plants. Hence, it occupies level after the primary producers.
Tiger, lion and eagle feed on meat and so they are termed as carnivores. They feed on animals like rabbit, goat, fowl, snake, etc., thus, occupying the level after them.
