Answer:

Hope this helps some

Explanation:

Secondary Consumer Definition Secondary consumers occupy the third trophic level in a typical food chain. They are organisms that feed on primary consumers for nutrients and energy. While primary consumers are always herbivores; organisms that only feed on autotrophic plants, secondary consumers can be carnivores or omnivores.

Answer: X, because organism X feeds on producers

Explanation:

Secondary consumers consists of herbivores who consume primary consumers (plants). So that eliminates both 3rd and 4th options. The only option left is X, since its eaten by the tertiary consumer.
