d. animals

Respuesta :

The answer would be B, because Quaternary consumers are animals that are at the top of the food chain.

Answer;

-B. prey

Explanation;

-The food chain is comprised of various types of organisms: those who produce, those who consume, and those who decompose. There are four different types of consumers: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary.

-Quaternary consumers are at the top of food chain. These consumers are predators and survive by eating those below them in the food chain, such as tertiary and secondary consumers. A quaternary consumer is a heterotroph, meaning that it meets its nutritional requirements from complex organisms.
