The diagram below shows a food web in a woodland.

A food web diagram showing cornstalks with two arrows pointing away from it. One of the arrows points to the letter X and the other arrow points to a grasshopper. There are two arrows pointing away from the grasshopper. One is pointing to a baby sparrow and the other to the letter Y. There is an arrow pointing away from the baby sparrow to a snake and an arrow pointing away from the letter X to the snake.

If a certain organism is a secondary consumer, what best explains its position in the food web? (3 points)

a
X, because organism X feeds on producers

b
Y, because organism Y feeds on producers

c
X, because organism X feeds on a carnivore

d
Y, because organism Y feeds on a herbivore

Explanation:

Options A and B have wrong reasons because to feed on producers means that it is a primary consumer.

Option C is wrong because organism X only feeds on cornstalks.

Organism Y does feed on the grasshopper, which feeds on the cornstalks. It is a secondary consumer.

Hence Option D is correct.
