If a grasshopper 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
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 the primary consumer to the 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
