ANIMALS AND WHAT THEY EAT

The dietary habits of animals can be categorized into three main types: herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores. Herbivores primarily consume plant-based food and often have specialized digestive systems that allow them to efficiently process various kinds of plants.

ANIMALS AND WHAT THEY EAT

A microorganism is an organism so small that people cannot see them with the naked eye.

Microorganisms can be harmful and useful organisms.

TROPHIC SYSTEM

Bottom level: Living things that produces their own energy, like plants.
Second level: herbivores
top level: omnivores and carnivores
The trophic system has three levels. When one level of the trophic system is removed, all of the trophic levels below them are affected.

OMNIVORES

Harmful microorganisms include fungi, bacteria, protozoa, etc.

They cause several diseases in human beings, animals, and plants, which can even lead to death.

The harmful microorganisms not only can damage the human body, but also the food we eat.

Some examples are deer, koalas, some birds...

What diseases can they cause?

Omnivores have very distinctive teeth that help with the digestion of their varied diets.
They eat plants

Give examples of how harmful organisms can spread.

HERBIVORES

Human, birds, chickens...

Give examples of bacteria used in the pharmaceutical industry.

Many herbivores have special digestive systems that let them digest all kinds of plants
Herbivores need a lot of energy to stay alive. Many of them, like cows and sheep, eat all day long.
eat both plant- and animal-derived food.

CARNIVORES

There are five types of microorganisms. Out of these five, four can be free-living or parasitic.

There is one that can be only parasitic since it always reproduces inside other living things.

After enumerating them, click on the flags below to mark the ones which can be free-living and the ones that cannot.

only parasitic

Lions, snakes, sahrks...
They are important to any ecosystem, because they keep other species from getting overpopulated.
