Secondary consumers are eaten by larger Correct Answer predator
A tertiary consumer is an animal that obtains its nutrition by eating primary consumers and secondary consumers.
Usually tertiary consumers are carnivorous predators, although they may also be omnivores, which are animals that feed on both meat and plant material.
Tertiary consumers often occupy the top trophic level, and so are predated by no other animals; in this case they are called "apex predators". However, when they die their bodies will be consumed by scavengers and decomposers.
