Drag the labels signifying different consumer levels onto this diagram showing part of a food web. Not all labels will be used.
PC = primary consumer
SC = secondary consumer
TC = tertiary consumer
QC = quaternary consumer

Hi Xroflmao,

Primary consumers are the ones that eat the producers (plants).

The hawk is likely a quaternary consumer because it is highest on the food web.

Hope this helped.
