i am doing a project about the sea. I need to know 5 different producers, 4 herbivores, 2 carnivores, also 1 top predator, 2 decomposers, and 1 parasite
i do not need definitions to what herbivores etc. mean, or land creatures that are herbivores etc. what i need is the name of marine animals that are herbivores etc.
An herbivore is an animal - sea animal or land animal - that eats only vegetation. So some forms of algae feeders would qualify as herbivores. Carnivores eat other animals - whether they are on land or on sea. So a sea animal that is a carnivore would be a shark, for one example.
Producers? not sure what that would be. Check your text for definitions on that one.
