Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Autotrophs produce their own food. Primary consumers eat autotrophs. Secondary consumers eat primary - consumers. Tertiary consumers eat secondary consumers. Some animals can occupy multiple trophic levels depending on the food web.

  1. In a typical food - web, animals usually have a defined role as either primary or secondary consumers, but not both simultaneously. So the answer is No.
  2. Similarly, it is very rare for an animal to be both a primary and a tertiary consumer. So the answer is No.
  3. Some animals like wolves can be both secondary and tertiary consumers as they can eat primary consumers (e.g., rabbits) and also other secondary consumers (e.g., foxes). If in the given food - web there are such animals, list them. But based on general knowledge, wolves can be an example.

Answer:

  1. No
  2. No
  3. It depends on the food - web. In general, wolves can be an example.
