Question

1. a \boxed{} is an animal that eats the producers.
2. an organism such as a bacterium or fungus that breaks down the remains of dead plants and animals without need for internal digestion is known as a \boxed{}.
3. the continuous movement of carbon among the abiotic environment and living things is known as the \boxed{}.
4. an animal that eats the secondary consumers is known as a \boxed{}.
5. a \boxed{} is an animal that eats the primary consumers.

Explanation:

Question 7

In ecology, a herbivore (or primary consumer) is an animal that eats producers (plants).

Decomposers like bacteria or fungi break down dead organic matter without internal digestion (they secrete enzymes externally).

The carbon cycle describes the continuous movement of carbon between abiotic (e.g., atmosphere, soil) and biotic (living organisms) components.

Answer:

A herbivore (or primary consumer)
