Which classification best describes herbivores?
A
Organisms that primarily consume plants
B
Organisms that produce their own food through photosynthesis
C
Organisms that decompose dead organic matter
D
Organisms that primarily consume other animals
Verified step by step guidance1
Step 1: Understand the term 'herbivores'. Herbivores are organisms that primarily consume plants as their main source of energy and nutrients.
Step 2: Analyze the provided options. The first option states 'Organisms that primarily consume plants,' which aligns with the definition of herbivores.
Step 3: Evaluate the other options. The second option, 'Organisms that produce their own food through photosynthesis,' describes autotrophs, such as plants and algae, not herbivores.
Step 4: Consider the third option, 'Organisms that decompose dead organic matter.' This describes decomposers, such as fungi and bacteria, not herbivores.
Step 5: Review the fourth option, 'Organisms that primarily consume other animals.' This describes carnivores, not herbivores. Therefore, the correct classification for herbivores is the first option: 'Organisms that primarily consume plants.'
