Consumers that feed on the bodies of dead organisms are called scavengers.
a herbivore and a carnivore
Secondary consumers are herbivores that feed on primary consumers.
Lions are secondary consumers and feed mostly on primary consumers such as zebras.
Primary consumers eat plant matter, secondary consumers eat organisms that have fed from the plant-eaters and tertiary consumers are organisms that feed from secondary consumers. Scavengers and decomposers feed on dead animals and plant material, including all kind of food waste. Blue jays have a very varied diet and eat almost anything that could be considered as a food source. When they eat fruits, grains, or berries, they are a primary consumer. When they eat meat, including small invertebrates, they are secondary, or possibly tertiary consumers depending exactly what their food has eaten before being eaten by the blue jay. When they eat table scraps or other food waste they are scavengers.

decomposers, like maggots.
Maggots
Like a hawk, they eat animals that are already dead. They are called scavengers.
An animal that feeds on the bodies of dead organisms is called a scavenger. Scavengers play an important role in the ecosystem by helping to recycle nutrients and organic matter. Examples of scavengers include vultures, hyenas, and beetles.
No, fungi are consumers not producers. They decompose or parasitize other organisms.
No, a carnivore is an animal that eats only meat. Scavengers (hawks, vultures) eat dead animals and organisms like bacteria also feed on dead animals.
They are all types of organisms in an ecosystem. Decomposers break down dead organisms, producers create food through photosynthesis, predators hunt and consume other organisms, and consumers feed on producers or other consumers for energy.
Decomposers break down dead organic matter into simpler substances, returning nutrients to the environment. Consumers are organisms that feed on other organisms to obtain energy and nutrients for survival. Decomposers primarily act on non-living organic matter, while consumers primarily feed on living organisms.
consumers that deed on the tissues of dead animals
No, not all microorganisms feed on dead organisms. Microorganisms are classified as either decomposers, which feed on dead organisms, or as parasites, which feed on living organisms. Some microorganisms also obtain their nutrients from non-living sources such as minerals or sunlight.
