A large variety of plants, animals, and microbes found on earth and they differ in size, shape, colour, habitat, and many other characteristics. So, studying each of them is impossible. Therefore, scientists have devised mechanisms to classify all living organisms on certain rules and principles that allow identification, nomenclature, and finally classification of an organism.
For example, based on presence of three pairs of legs and 2 pairs of wings, an organism is identified as an insect, it will be given a scientific name and then grouped with other similar organisms. Thus, various groups or taxon include organisms based on their similarity and differences.
Therefore, the biological classification helps in revealing the relationship between various organisms. It also helps in making study of organisms easy and organized.
NCERT questions are designed to test your understanding of the concepts and theories discussed in the chapter. Here are some tips to help you answer NCERT questions effectively:
Welcome to the NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Biology - Chapter . This page offers a step-by-step solution to the specific question from Excercise 1 , Question 4: Secondary producers are (a) Herbivores (b) Producers (c) Carnivores (d) None of the above....
Comments
Answer A
There are no other producers except plants .so option D is the correct one
Option d is correct
Option d
Option "A"is correct because if u remind secondary productivity then secondary producer are harbivores i.e. primary consumer so i think option A is more appropriate rather than option D
no, herbivores are primary consumer .So correct option is d
May be d option i.e.none of the above is correct from my point of view.
Herbivores is right
Surely herbivores as they act in similar manner in food chain for carnivores as primary producer viz plants act for primary consumer viz herbivores
Now I see! This does make sense because although herbivores are consumers, they are a source of food for carnivores. Since they eat plants, they are eating the primary producers, making them primary consumers. But when carnivores eat them, they turn into secondary producers because they are producing the energy for the meat - eaters since they ate the plants first. So this means that technically, secondary producers are also primary consumers.
