If a grass hopper is eaten by a frog, then the energy transfer will be from
(a) producer to decomposer
(b) producer to primary consumer
(c) primary consumer to secondary consumer
(d) secondary consumer to primary consumer
(c)
The food chain involved is:
Grass – Grasshopper – Frog.
In this food chain, if a grasshopper is eaten by a frog, then the energy transfer will be from primary consumer to secondary consumer. Grasshopper feeds on producers, i.e., the grass/plants.
Level - 1 Grass Producer
Level – 2 Grasshopper Primary consumer
Level – 3 Frog Secondary consumer
Therefore option (C) is correct
