Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the key characteristics of herbivores and carnivores. Herbivores are animals that primarily consume plant material, while carnivores primarily consume animal flesh.
Consider the physical adaptations of herbivores and carnivores. Herbivores typically have flat teeth adapted for grinding plant material, whereas carnivores have sharp teeth designed for tearing meat.
Evaluate the environments where herbivores and carnivores are typically found. Herbivores can be found in both terrestrial and aquatic environments, as can carnivores.
Analyze the size comparison between herbivores and carnivores. Size can vary greatly among both herbivores and carnivores, and there is no rule that herbivores are always larger than carnivores.
Determine which statement accurately contrasts herbivores and carnivores based on their diet and physical adaptations. The correct contrast is that herbivores primarily consume plant material, while carnivores primarily consume animal flesh.
