Question

what would happen if the primary consumer would increase rapidly??

Answer 1

okay so if the primary cosumer experices a population growth the ecosystem will be thrown out of balance. the predators main food's population will be cut down and if such the population would most likely die off because of the prey dying off.

Answer 2

Answer 3

zut. right i was thinking secondary.

Answer 4

now if there is more of then the plant population(autotrophs) may decrease and the secondary may increase because there is more food for them

Answer 5

Here's a picture of the food chain pyramid.

The very bottom is made of primary producers. Plants.

And primary consumers are right above primary producers.
So you're right; primary consumers eat plants.

Now, if the primary consumer population increased rapidly,
then all the plants would be wiped out,
because too many animals would eat them.
