Food web Food waste Food cycle Food chain 3 / 15 They only eat plants. carnivores herbivores vegetarians omnivores 4 / 15 The organisms that eat the primary consumers are called _________? primary consumer producers tertiary consumer secondary consumer 5 / 15 Food chains show energy transfer between organisms. The size of a food chain can vary, yet there is a limit to the number of levels that a food chain can reach. Why is there a limit to the number of levels that a food chain can reach? Carnivores are too large to be eaten. Energy is lost at each trophic level. Producers are limited by consumers.
